The slope of a straight line is commonly described as rise over run. In other words, it's the ratio of the change in the y direction to the change in the x direction. Therefore, lines with greater slopes are closer to vertical. A vertical line has infinite slope, and the slope of a horizontal line is zero.
No. "Vertical" just means they go from top to bottom; it doesn't give any information about the length.
Suppose the specified line has gradient m. Also suppose the specified distance is d.Then x = sqrt[d2/(1 + m2)] and y = m*x.A translation, by a distance x in the horizontal direction and y=mx in the vertical direction will move the point by the specified distance in the direction of the specified line.
No, the horizon is horizontal. A vertical line is perpendicular to the horizon.
A vertical line has an undefined slope.
In the vertical direction.
In the vertical direction.
A line with a slope of zero is a flat, vertical line.
If the "line" has a direction, it is a vector. Algebraic "lines" have no end nor beginning and so cannot "go" down nor up.
You could always use www.dictionary.com and search the word, but in a nut shell, it's the direction of up/down. This line is vertical: | This line is horizontal: ___
In the vertical direction.

The way to remember it is horizontal is like the horizon, so flat like this: ___________________________________________________________ That was a horizontal line. Vertical is the other way (so up and down): | | | | | | | That was a vertical line.
