Both.

The very earliest recorded habitation of the island now known as Ireland were people from Scotland who settled Mountsandel in the very Northeastern tip of Ulster.

The first recorded major influx of people from Ireland into Scotland were the victims of the Great Famine of the 19th century, where they settled mainly in parts of Glasgow and surrounding areas outside Glasgow.

Where abouts in Scotland did the Irish people settle?

Irish people were in Ireland, not Scotland. However, the western part of Scotland is nearest in proximity to the island of Ireland, making that area of Scotland a popular point of arrival for Irish emigrating from Ireland to Great Britain over the years. Scottish cities with the largest number of residents of Irish ancestry are: Dundee, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. The first sentence of this answer is not needed. That's not what the questioner meant.
