Methyl orange (MO), as you know, is an acid-base indicator. 

let us :take a few drops of HCl would affect water differently. Let's say, you had 1L of water and you added 3 drops (0.15 mL) of concentrated saturated HCl (~40% w/w). That leads us to ~0.002 mol of HCl added and to pH lower than 3, so the MO would turn red. If you had diluted solutions, like 0.01M or so, the calculations would tell you the pH would still be higher than 4.4, so the MO would still be yellow
