Yellow stakes for a Hazard, red for a lateral hazard. Hazards are lateral if the committee determines there is no practical way to drop behind the hazard as per Rule 26/1b. (Keeping the point of entry between you and the flag.)
If you ball went in a lateral the added option is that under 1 stoke penalty at the point where you ball crossed the margin you can drop withing two club lengths, no nearer the hole. Or you can drop on the other side of the lateral on the same line as your ball entered you can take two cub lengths no nearer the hole.

Back to the original question yes, play from where the last stroke was played under penalty of stroke and distance (the first one counts). Or keep the point where your ball entered between you and the flag and drop anywhere along that line you wish.
