Slope of a straight line is the same at all points on the line, whereas for a curved line it changes.
A linear relationship means that the slope of the line is proportional, which means that the line is straight. In contrast to the linear realtionship, the non-linear relationship's slope is not proportional and the line will curved and not straight. Formula of calculating the slope is the difference of y divided by the difference of x.
The slope of a curved line at a point is the slope of the tangent to the curve at that point. If you know the equation of the curve and the curve is well behaved, you can find the derivative of the equation of the curve. The value of the derivative, at the point in question, is the slope of the curved line at that point.
a straight line is mainly x2 a curved line is mainly x3
If it is not straight, then it is not a line.
No. This is true for any curved line, not just in economics.
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.

The straight line with no slope is a point
The slope of a curved line at a point is the slope of the tangent to the curve at that point. If you know the equation of the curve and the curve is well behaved, you can find the derivative of the equation of the curve. The value of the derivative, at the point in question, is the slope of the curved line at that point.

The slope of a curved line changes as you go along the curve and so you may have a different slope at each point. Any any particular point, the slope of the curve is the slope of the straight line which is tangent to the curve at that point. If you know differential calculus, the slope of a curved line at a point is the value of the first derivative of the equation of the curve at that point. (Actually, even if you don't know differential calculus, the slope is still the value of the function's first derivative at that point.)
If it is not straight, then it is not a line.
The acceleration of the ball can be estimated by calculating the slope of the velocity versus time graph. If the graph is a straight line, the slope represents the acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration. If the graph is curved, the instantaneous acceleration can be estimated by finding the slope of the tangent line at a specific point on the curve.

Yes, technically a curved line can be a line segment, a line in general is something that can be curved or straight
A slope is 0 if it is a straight horizontal line. A slope is undefined if it is a straight vertical line.
A curved line is a line that is not straight.
