A straight line cuts off the intercepts $OA = a$ and $OB = b$ on the positive directions of $x$-axis and $y -$ axis respectively. If the perpendicular from origin $O$ to this line makes an angle of $\frac{\pi}{6}$ with positive direction of $y$-axis and the area of $\triangle OAB$ is $\frac{98}{3} \sqrt{3}$, then $a ^2- b ^2$ is equal to:
