  Can you classify the entities programatically? if you can then it won't be difficult to store them. Its upto you, for the way to store it !

  Bashpika,
  Why dont you store the co-ordinates of the line - instead?
  Define the shape as a collection of co-ordinates for a more generic definition.

  I think it is easy to store by storing the attributes (coefficient of X, coefficient of Y,constant term in the line equation and color) superately.
  if the color is differ at different points,as per the case we can store it us multiple lines or by storing the co-ordinates with color
