GoF-37:

"But, through a gap in the standing figures, Harry saw that Malfoy, Crabbe, 
Goyle and many of the other Slytherins had remained defiantly in their 
seats, their goblets untouched"

Doesn't sound like 'a few' to me.

But of course he - or any of the many other Slytherins who remained seated, 
didn't rebuke or punish those standing for participating in the toast 
Dumbledore suggested - especially not right in front of Dumbledore himself. 
Who knows if Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle when they arrive at Harry et. Al.'s 
train compartment have just finished a punitive expedition to deal with all 
the offensive Slytherins (no, I don't think so, but I can't see how it 
could be refuted).
