Hi All,
I am in a situation where I have two predictors X_1 and X_2 which are quite related. i.e X_1=< X_2 by nature. Is there a way to incorporate this information in to my regression model?

That should be reflected by conditioning on both X_1
and X_2
.
Can the effect of X_1 at higher and lower values interpreted straightforwardly?
Yes, if X_2
is not a consequence of X_1
.
One approach is to rescale the predictors to X[1]
and X[2] - X[1]
. It changes the values you get for coefficients, so the priors mean slightly different things, but it can have a more natural interpretation.
