Can you divide the watch face with 2 straight lines so that the sum of the numbers in each part are equal?

If, by two straight lines, you mean two diameters, the answer is No, you cannot.
Two diameters will divide the clock face into four parts. The sum of the numbers, 1 to 12, is 78 which is not divisible by 4.
A diameter from between 9 and 10 (to between 3 and 4) will divide the clock face into halves, and the numbers in each half add to 39. Unfortunately, that is only one line, and not two as required.

Can you divide a square in 2 equal parts in 9 different ways?
Yes you can, but you have to use zig zag lines. Using straight lines there are only four ways to divide a square into two equal parts (along the lines of symmetry).

How do you divide sixteen Greek Goats with six straight lines as Euclid did?
The sixteen goats will be divided into six straight lines by some of the lines intersecting with each other. This is done by drawing three lines separating four columns, then three more lines to separate the rows.

Yes.

What are two straight lines called?
Two straight lines that remain equal distance apart are parallel lines.
How can you divide a clock into three equal parts with two lines?
To divide a clock into three equal parts using two lines, the lines must intersect at the center of the clock face. You can draw two lines from any point on the clock face that intersect at the center of the clock, effectively dividing it into three equal parts.
Divide the face of the clock into three parts with 2 lines so that the sum of the numbers in the three parts is equal?
