The graph of a linear function is a straight line. It can have a positive slope, indicating an upward trend, or a negative slope, indicating a downward trend. The line can also be horizontal if the function has a slope of zero, representing a constant value. The overall shape is determined by the function's slope and y-intercept.
That the independent variable is constant, or very close to. For example, if this happened on a Force-time graph, you could conclude that the Force remains at the specific value regardless of the time.
linear?
You can graph a linear equation slope intercept by solving the equation and plugging in the numbers : y=mx+b
As the slope get closer to zero, the graph becomes close to horizontal.
Yes, with no slope. It will show up as a horizontal line if you graph it.
The conclusion would be that there is no evidence of a linear relationship between the variables. There could well be a non-linear (eg quadratic) relationship.

No. A linear graph has the same slope anywhere.
As the slope get closer to zero, the graph becomes close to horizontal.
That line is horizontal on the graph. Its slope is zero.
It will be a horizontal line
It is a horizontal line.
