Problem

Let $S$ be the set of lattice points in the coordinate plane, both of whose coordinates are integers between $1$ and $30$ , inclusive. Exactly $300$ points in $S$ lie on or below a line with equation $y = mx$ . The possible values of $m$ lie in an interval of length $\frac{a}{b}$ , where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime positive integers. What is $a + b ?$

$\textbf{(A)} ~31 \qquad\textbf{(B)} ~47 \qquad\textbf{(C)} ~62 \qquad\textbf{(D)} ~72 \qquad\textbf{(E)} ~85$
