Let $ m,n$ be two natural nonzero numbers and sets $ A \equal{} \{ 1,2,...,n\}, B \equal{} \{1,2,...,m\}$. We say that subset $ S$ of Cartesian product $ A \times B$ has property $ (j)$ if $ (a \minus{} x)(b \minus{} y)\le 0$ for each pairs $ (a,b),(x,y) \in S$. Prove that every set $ S$ with propery $ (j)$ has at most $ m \plus{} n \minus{} 1$ elements.
[color=#FF0000]The statement was edited, in order to reflect the actual problem asked. The sign of the inequality was inadvertently reversed into $ (a \minus{} x)(b \minus{} y)\ge 0$, and that accounts for the following two posts.[/color]
