We study the affine quasi-Einstein equation, a second-order linear homogeneous equation, which is invariantly defined on any affine manifold. We prove that the space of solutions is finite dimensional and its dimension is a strongly projective invariant. Moreover, the maximal dimension is shown to be achieved if and only if the manifold is strongly projectively flat.
