The equation contains variables which are only raised to the first power.
It is a linear equation. The highest power of x in the equation is 1 (3x1-4=12) so its "degree" is 1, and equations of "degree 1" are called linear equations.
A linear equation has no higher powers than 1. This is linear.
It is not. It is called a LINEAR equation. This is because the word linear refers to a line and, if the solutions of the equation, in the form of ordered pairs (x,y), were plotted on a Cartesian plane, they would all lie on a straight line.
y = 2x + 1 IS a linear equation!
That is called slope - intercept form

-1
In one word 'NO' Since it is and 'x^(2)' term, this will make a parabolic curve, not linear (straight line).
