28 points. Each added line n intersects (n-1) other lines. 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 +1 = 28

The formula is P = n(n-1)/2, which here is 8x7/2 = 28

It is possible to have any number of points between 28 and 1 if multiple lines intersect at the same point.

What do you call intersecting points?

Actually points do not intersect. They can be super-imposed if they are in the same location. Lines intersect.


Number of points at which two lines can intersect?

Depends on the lines. Anywhere from zero to infinitely many. If they are straight lines, then the answer is zero, one or infinity.
