I. Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions.
Eight people M, N, O, P, Q, R, S and T are sitting in a straight line with equal distances between each other, but not necessarily in the same order. Some of them are facing North and some of them are facing south. Each person has different lucky numbers starting from 1 to 9.

T and R have minimum and maximum lucky numbers respectively. M sits at one of the extreme ends of the line. The lucky numbers of P and Q are multiple of 3 and 2 respectively. Only three people sit between M and S. Q sits exactly between M and S. T sits third to the right of Q. The lucky number of N is greater than 3 and is the difference between the lucky numbers of P and T. N is an immediate neighbor of T and faces south. O sits second to the right of R. O is not an immediate neighbor of S. Immediate neighbor of S face opposite directions(i.e. if one neighbor faces North then the other neighbor faces south and Vice-Versa). M and P face the same direction as Q(i.e if Q faces north then M and P also face North and Vice-Versa). The lucky number of Q is greater than 7 and is the sum of the lucky numbers of O and N. Both the immediate neighbors of Q face south. The lucky number of M is the square of the lucky number of S.
