2Authored explanation

Let \(M_{10}\) denote the maximum. The point set \[ A=\{(0,7),(1,2),(2,0),(4,6),(5,3),(6,9),(7,1),(8,1),(9,5),(9,8)\} \] has ten points. Reducing every difference vector by the greatest common divisor of its coordinates, with a fixed sign convention, produces 45 distinct primitive directions. Thus \(M_{10}\geq10\).

For the upper bound, every segment direction has a unique representative \((a,b)\) with \(0\leq a\leq9\), \(-9\leq b\leq9\), \(\gcd(a,|b|)=1\), and \(a>0\), apart from the vertical representative \((0,1)\). Exact enumeration gives 112 supported undirected directions. A \(k\)-point set in the problem uses a different direction for each of its \(\binom{k}{2}\) pairs, so \[ \binom{k}{2}\leq112. \] Since \(\binom{15}{2}=105\) and \(\binom{16}{2}=120\), this proves \(M_{10}\leq15\). The certified interval is therefore \[ \boxed{10\leq M_{10}\leq15}. \] The exact value remains unresolved in this entry.
