In a $\triangle A B C$, points $X$ and $Y$ are on $A B$ and $A C$, respectively, such that $X Y$ is parallel to $B C$. Which of the two following equalities always hold? (Here $[P Q R]$ denotes the area of $\triangle P Q R)$.

$I$. $[B C X]=[B C Y]$

$II$. $[A C X] \cdot[A B Y]=[A X Y] \cdot[A B C]$
