The system Ax=b is consistent exactly when the vector b lies in the column space of A. Matrix dimensions restrict the possible rank, but the shape of the matrix alone does not guarantee consistency or uniqueness.
Conditions: A is a matrix representing a linear transformation.; b is a vector with compatible dimensions.
