no. its an exponential with a vertical zero axis
Yes. You can tell by the fact that both variables are raised to the first power.
no
Yes, the graph of a linear equation can be a line. There are special cases, sometimes trivial ones like y=y or x=x which are linear equations, but the graph is the entire xy plane. The point being, linear equations most often from a line, but there are cases where they do not.
No. In the variable x, alone, it is linear. In the variable y, alone, it is linear. But taken together, in x and y, you have a term which contains xy - that is, a term in which the powers of the unknowns add to 2. So the equation is not linear.
There are many ways to graph linear equations. One way that will always work it to pick some points, 3 is plenty. Pick and x value, plug it in and then find the y value. You will obtain a set or ordered pairs. Graph these and connect the dots. Voila------------- a line!
Yes, the world "linear" and "line" have the same root.

No because when you place x in terms of y, you get y = 1/x ( by dividing both the sides by x). This is not linear because the power of x is (-1) and for a linear relationship, you need the power of x to be (1).

You mean -1 = xy , right? If we think of y against x, then it's like y = -1/x .... It's not linear. But if we consider y against 1/x , it's linear....
