It is an expression, not an equation and so cannot be proportional nor non-proportional.
No. Although this an equation of a straight line and y increases when x increases, a directly proportional equation has y/x = constant. So if b is zero it is in direct proportion, but not if b is non zero
if {
It is a relationship in which changes in one variable are accompanied by changes of a constant amount in the other variable and that the variables are not both zero.In terms of an equation, it requires y = ax + b where a and b are both non-zero.
If each side of the equation is a fraction, then it is a proportion.
