b
The decision boundary is the hyperplane
β​0​+xTβ​=0.
(1)
At threshold q the classifier predicts spam when
β​0​+xTβ​>log1−qq​,
(2)
so q=1/2 gives the original classifier. Varying q translates the boundary parallel to itself: raising q shrinks the region classified as spam and generally trades fewer false positives for more false negatives.
