The answer is 7! = 5040 ways. Label the 7 people A through G. Person A can pick from 7 different available positions. Person B can now choose from 6 different positions. Person C can choose from 5 available positions. On down to person G has one choice, so this is 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 5040. This type of multiplication is so common in statistics that it has a name - factorial function, and is abbreviated by the exclamation mark (n! = n x (n-1) x (n-2) x ... x 2 x 1)

There are 7 people who could stand first, with 6 people who could stand second for each of those first people, with 5 people who could stand third for each of those first two people, and so on, until with 1 person left who could stand seventh for each of the first six people. This gives 7 × 6 × 5 × ... × 1 = 5040 ways.
Not sure what a strait line is! Five people can stand in a straight line, with Jessie third in 24 ways if you ignore left-to-right and right-to-left "reflections".

There are n! (n factorial) ways that n people can stand in line. So six people can stand in line in: 1*2*3*4*5*6 = 720 different ways
If the people are always facing forward? 24 ways.

A line dance is a dance that has a group of people who stand in a line and dance repeatedly the same steps. Line dance is usually used in Country Western bars.
Stand in Line was created in 1988.
To toe the line, or toe the chalk line, is to follow orders and do what you are told. In some circumstances people are asked to stand in front of a line (which may or may not be drawn in chalk) with their toes at the line. If people do that, it is an indication of obedience.
It usually depends on how many people are there.
