It means that there is no set of values for the variables such that all the linear equations are simultaneously true.
A system of equations may have any amount of solutions. If the equations are linear, the system will have either no solution, one solution, or an infinite number of solutions. If the equations are linear AND there are as many equations as variables, AND they are independent, the system will have exactly one solution.
None, one or infinitely many.
