Do all positive slopes taken from points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) satisfy the following logic, x1 < x2 and y1 < y2?

SUMMARY
In the discussion titled "Positive Slopes: Satisfying the Logic," participants analyze the conditions under which a slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is considered positive. The definitive conditions established are that a positive slope occurs when both x1 < x2 and y1 < y2, or when both x1 > x2 and y1 > y2. The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing the negative/negative case, which was initially overlooked. This clarification is crucial for understanding slope behavior in coordinate geometry.
