Does this particular method only find rational solutions less than one?

It seems to me that integer solutions are rational solutions, and if you can find a finite number of rational solutions and prove those are all the rational solutions, you've also found all integer solutions (by filtering the rational solutions for integers).

But when there are infinitely many rational solutions, that may leave an open question whether there are also infinitely many integer solutions.
