YES!!!

When neither 'x' nor 'y' are taised to any power/index/exponent. then it is a linear equation.

3x = 5y

5y = 3x

Divide both sides by '5'

y = (3/5)x + 0

In other words it is a straight line, through the origin (0,0) of gradient '3/5'.

3X = 5Y

solve for Y

Y = 3/5X

this is by definition a linear equation solved. You can plat this straight line on a graph.
