Cart has many line items.

edit app/models/cart.rb

class Cart < ActiveRecord::Base

  has_many :line_items, dependent: :destroy

end

Product has many line items.

edit app/models/product.rb

class Product < ActiveRecord::Base

  has_many :line_items

  before_destroy :ensure_not_referenced_by_any_line_item

  #...

  private

    # ensure that there are no line items referencing this product

    def ensure_not_referenced_by_any_line_item

      if line_items.empty?

        return true

      else

        errors.add(:base, 'Line Items present')

        return false

      end

    end

end

Line item belongs to both Cart and Product (But slightly more to the Cart). Also provide convenient access to the total price of the line item

edit app/models/line_item.rb

class LineItem < ActiveRecord::Base

  belongs_to :product

  belongs_to :cart

end
