How to determine if points fall above an arbitrary line?

Hello all,
I am trying to find a way to determine if points are above or below an arbitrary line. For example, the code
numXY = randi([1, 19], 1);
lineXs = [0; sort(rand(numXY, 1) * numXY)];
lineYs = rand(size(lineXs));
Xs = rand([100, 1]) * max(lineXs);
Ys = rand(size(Xs));
figure
scatter(Xs, Ys, '.k')
hold on
plot(lineXs, lineYs, 'r')
axis tight
would produce something like

How to determine which of the points in (Xs, Ys) are above or below the red line defined by (lineXs, LineYs)?
Thank you in advance!

Read about inpolygon.
numXY = randi([1, 19], 1);
lineXs = [0; sort(rand(numXY, 1) * numXY)];
lineYs = rand(size(lineXs));
Xs = rand([100, 1]) * max(lineXs);
Ys = rand(size(Xs));
idx = inpolygon(Xs,Ys,[0 ; lineXs ; max(lineXs)],[ 0 ; lineYs ; 0]) ;
figure
% scatter(Xs, Ys, '.k')
hold on
plot(lineXs, lineYs, 'r')
plot(Xs(idx),Ys(idx),'*k')
plot(Xs(~idx),Ys(~idx),'*r')
