If you have only two wire connected to that switch it does not matter which wire goes to which screw.
By the way there is no neutral connected to a switch. On a single pole switch you have a hot conductor and a switched hot conductor, no neutral conductor to that switch.
On a three way switch you have a common hot conductor and two traveler hot conductors, no neutral connected to that switch.
Hope this helps
