A straight line has no turning points and so no local maxima or minima. The line has a maximum at + infinity and a minimum at - infinity if m > 0 and conversely if m < 0.
When m = 0, the line is horizontal and so has no maximum or minimum. ([Alternatively, every point on the line is simultaneously a maximum and a minimum.]

How do you find the range of a rational function?
If the degree of the polynomial is odd, the range is all real numbers - for example, y = x5. If the degree is even, use derivatives to find maxima or minima. You learn about derivatives, maxima and minima in any basic calculus course. Example: y = x4 - 3x3 Take the derivative: y' = 4x3 - 9x2 Solve for zero: 4x3 - 9x2 = 0 This will give you two maxima or minima; in this case, check at which of these points the function has the smallest value. Because of the positive coefficient of the leading term, the function values go from this point all the way to plus infinity.
