Systems of equations with the same slopes have infinitely many solutions. Always Sometimes Never

for infinitely many solutions to exist, the equations must be the same thing. If one equation is ax + by +c = 0 and the other is k(ax+by+c) = 0 i.e. each term is multiplied by a fixed non-zero constant, then the two equations are the same, and there exist infinite values of x,y that satisfy both equations. However, if only the slope is same but the y-intercept is different, then clearly both lines are non-intersecting parallel lines. These will never meet and thus have no possible solution. So, your answer would be 'sometimes'
