Putnam 1988 B6

Prove that there exist an infinite number of ordered pairs $(a,b)$ of integers such that for every positive integer $t$, the number $at+b$ is a triangular number if and only if $t$ is a triangular number. (The triangular numbers are the $t_n = n(n+1)/2$ with $n$ in $\{0,1,2,\dots\}$.)
