I think we're ignoring the case of b = - 1, since that wouldn't make a an integer. Then in the case of b = 1, a = + - 1, and still proves that (3, 5) and (3, -5) are the only pairs of integer solutions. I don't know, perhaps I'm wrong?

Your still young and you don't have to worry about that all yet. When your 13 you start to discover who you are and what you like. So when the time comes, you will eventually decide on your own. No need to be stressed, you still have a lot of years ahead of you 😃 But it's always good to think about your future early but not be stressed about it
