Abstract
We establish various upper bounds on Type-I and Type-II shifted bilinear sums with Sali\'e sums modulo a large prime $q$. We use these bounds to study, for fixed integers $a,b\not \equiv 0 \bmod q$, the distribution ofsolutions to the congruence $x^2 \equiv ap+b \bmod q$, over primes $p\le P$. This is similar to the recently studied case of $b = 0$, however the case $b\not \equiv 0 \bmod q$ exhibits some new difficulties.
