In a timeline what does a jagged line mean
Because it is just a place in time that nothing relative happens

This is to represent a period of time in which nothing relative happened and would otherwise take up space on the timeline .
I think that is a way of showing that a section of the time line with no related events has been removed from that place on the line. A more common way of showing that is with a pair of slashes spanning a break in the line (------//------).
Time zone borders are jagged because they follow political borders.
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
The dotted line stages are individual time trial stages. The other dotted lines are visual representations of where the next days stage will begin.
The reason why the time zone lines follow irregular paths rather than straight lines, is to allow a number of small countries and islands to maintain a single time zone rather than being divided by these time zone lines. If an island is not very large, it just seems silly and a needless bother to have two time zones. So we just route the time zone line around it.
Line Graphs: have lines connecting each graphed data. Line Plots: have Xs for each time the value is repeated.
time lines are basically a sequence of events in order.
Verse has two meanings when one applies it to a poem. A single line can be called a verse. When we talk about blank verse, each line of the poem is a verse. (Verse comes from a Latin word meaning 'to turn a corner': in poetry the lines turn a corner each time they end and you begin with a fresh capital letter). But a verse can also mean a 'stanza': a group of lines held together with a rime. O what can ail thee Knight at arms Alone and palely loitering? The sedge is withered from the lake And no birds sing. The rimes here bind four lines together into a verse of four lines (a quatrain). Because of this ambiguity, most poets (and the best critics) say 'stanza' when they mean 'group of lines' and 'line' when they mean 'single line'.
