There's no such thing as "a parallel line segment". "Parallel" tells something about the
relationship between TWO line segments. If two line segments are parallel, then no
matter where you measure the distance between them, it's always the same.
A few examples of parallel lines are . . .
-the rungs of a ladder
-the sides of a ladder
-the two rails of a train track
-the top edge of a wall (where it meets the ceiling) and the bottom edge
of the same wall (where it meets the floor)
- the top and bottom edges of a ruler
- a line between the left-side wheels of a wagon and a line between the
right-side wheels of the same wagon
- 7th Avenue and 8th Avenue in New York City

A line segment is a straight line with two points at the end of each side of the line.
Look for the two sides which are parallel. You will find the mid segment halfway between the two sides.
It looks like an isosceles triangle with its top cut off by a line parallel to its base.
It is: y = -23 which will be straight horizontal line parallel to the x axis
If you mean: y = 7 on the Cartesian plane then it is a straight horizontal line parallel to the x axis.
