Is a curved line linear?
No, "linear" means in a straight line.
What does an oblique line look like?
a straight line
How many angles are there in the linear structure?
There are no angles in a linear structure. It is one line.
What is the difference between a linear graph and a non-linear graph?
linear: LINE example--- line non-linear: not a LINE example--- parabola The other possibility is a graph with a non-linear scale. First a linear scale will have each unit represent the same amount, regardless of where you are on the scale. A semilog scale, has a linear scale in the horizontal direction, and a logarithmic scale in the vertical direction. Exponential functions (such as ex & 10x), will graph as a straight line on this type of graph scale). A logarithmic or log-log scale, has logarithmic scales on both horizontal and vertical axis. Power functions (such as sqrt(x), x2 and x3), graph as a straight line on these scales. See Related Link
Do linear relationships show the same slope between any two points on a line?
Depends on your definition of "linear" For someone taking basic math - algebra, trigonometry, etc - yes. Linear means "on the same line." For a statistician/econometrician? No. "Linear" has nothing to do with lines. A "linear" model means that the terms of the model are additive. The "general linear model" has a probability density as a solution set, not a line...
