Linear distance is basically the distance between two defined points. Think of two pins on a map, and a string being strung from both heads, where the string would follow from one point to another in a perfect line. Hence, linear.

For example, on a number line (which is one dimensional object), we measure the distance of two points in units. For example, the distance between 2 and 4 is 2 units. Any nth side of a polygon, can be measured by using linear units, such as cm, in., ft, km, etc. The circumference of a circle, the length of an arc, also are measured by linear units. A unit that is used to measure the distance between two points, is called linear dimension.
No, there is a linear relationship.

A linear inch is a measurement of distance, usually along a straight line.
No, I don't think that would fit the definition of a linear function.
