Because linear symmetry defines a line such that the shape is unchanged when REFLECTED in that line.

Is the quality a design has if it maintains all characteristics when it is rotated about an axis lying in its plane A Linear symmetry B Rotational symmetry C Translatio?

The quality a design has if it maintains all characteristics when rotated about an axis lying in its plane is called B) Rotational symmetry. This means that the design looks the same after a certain degree of rotation around that axis. Linear symmetry, on the other hand, involves reflection across a line, while translational symmetry refers to a design being invariant under translation.
