I'm not sure what you mean by "the" linear equation.

"A" linear equation is the equation of a line.

4x+7 = 2x + 5 is a linear equation in 1 variable.

If you were to solve for x, you would get x = -1 which, if graphed, is a vertical line.

For example y = 3x + 7 is a linear equation in two variables. This particular line has a slope of 3 and a y-intercept at (0,7). If graphed, it would pass through the y-axis at (0,7) and "rise" vertically +3 units for each horizontal "run" of +1 unit.

hey I'm 14 n linear graph are always straight line graphs. They can also be defined as x axis and y axis; from which also as Rectangular or Cartesian.
