A "line" does.
A "line segment" does not.
Most people interpret "line" to mean "line segment" (without realising it) and so would conclude that a line does not go on forever.
A "line segment" is a line between two points, which is what you would draw if told to draw a "line" on a piece of paper.

Parallel line segments are 2 line segments that are parallel. They never touch and they do not go on forever. Parallel lines do go on forever because lines go on forever. I think I'm right. Am I?
Yes, you are right. A line segment eventually ends. In fact, a segment has two endpoints. But parallel lines go on forever; they have no endpoints.Example: (arrows indicating they go on forever)_____________________ (these are parallel line segments)
Do Line segments go on forever?
No. Line segments end at the endpoints.
Do parallel lines go on forever?
No, But 1 Dimensional Does. The lines may or may not go on forever but that has no effect on whether or not a parallel line will cross.
Can a ray start at one point on a line and go on forever?
yes
What is the difference between a line and a ray?
lines go forever in both directions rays start at a specific point and go forever in only one direction
Does a ray go on forever?
Yes, both a ray and a line go on forever, but unlike a line, and like a line segment, a ray has an endpoint.

Can a line go forever?
yes forever and ever never stops
How far can a straight line go?
Forever.
Do Line segments go on forever?
No. Line segments end at the endpoints.
Do parallel lines go on forever?
No, But 1 Dimensional Does. The lines may or may not go on forever but that has no effect on whether or not a parallel line will cross.
Does a line go on forever?
In Euclidean geometry, a line is considered to be infinitely long in both directions, meaning it extends indefinitely in both the positive and negative directions along its path. This concept is based on the definition of a line as a straight path with no endpoints. Therefore, mathematically speaking, a line does go on forever.
What type of line goes on forever?
the type that go on forever are just called lines but the ones that end are segments
Can a ray start at one point on a line and go on forever?
yes
Does a line segment go forever?
No, just the opposite: A line segment has two end points. The word line is usually used to refer to a line segment, but by the mathematical definition, a line extends forever in both directions. (A line that has one end point and extends forever in one direction is called a ray.)
How are are arcs line segments?
Arcs are line segments because they do not go on forever. They only go part of the way around a circle
What is the difference between a line and a ray?
lines go forever in both directions rays start at a specific point and go forever in only one direction
