It's not necessarily the first line. The code is executed with the context of
the given file. Hence the corresponding line number of error from traceback
with respect to file is printed.
$ cat /tmp/passwd
line 1
line 2
line 3
line 4
$ python3 -c 'compile("\n\n\nyield", "/tmp/passwd", "exec")'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/tmp/passwd", line 4
line 4
^
SyntaxError: 'yield' outside function
