a x + b y + c = 0
b = (a + c) /2
2 a x + (a +c) y + 2 c = 0
a (2 x + y ) + c (y + 2) = 0
So if 2 x + y = 0 and y + 2 = 0 then, a , b, c are always in Arithmetic Progression irrespective of their values.
so the point is : y = -2, and x = 1 ie., (1, -2).

verify: substitute the values of x and y:
a * 1 - 2 * b + c = 0
b = (a + c) /2
2 a x + (a +c) y + 2 c = 0
a (2 x + y ) + c (y + 2) = 0
So if 2 x + y = 0 and y + 2 = 0 then, a , b, c are always in Arithmetic Progression irrespective of their values.
so the point is : y = -2, and x = 1 ie., (1, -2).
