collinear
On one line
Collinear describes points that lie on the same straight line.
In geometry, three or more points are collinear if a single line passes through all of them: Points A, B, and C are collinear.
The term extends to vectors pointing in the same or opposite directions.
Two points are always trivially collinear since any two points define a line.
