Que ... ou non / Que ... ou pas

I am wondering is there any particular rule when to use "non" / "pas"?Or are they freely interchangeable in this kind of expressions?Qu'ils sont interchangeables ou non...Qu'ils sont interchangeables ou pas...

Hi Wladuszk,

You can use either but -

‘Qu’ils SOIENT interchangeables ou non/pas’

This was the point of the lesson.....
