It is a RayA ray is part of a line which is finite in one direction, but infinite in the other. It can be defined by two points, the initial point, A, and one other, B. The ray is all the points in the line segment between A and B together with all points, C, on the line through A and B such that the points appear on the line in the order A, B, C.Source: Faber, Richard L.

No it cannot because a line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two end points, and contains every point on the line between its end points. If it has holes it does not contain every point between the end points.
Yes, because a ray is a line with an end point. It goes on forever in one direction.
It is called a ray.
A straight line may be extended in either direction indefinitely. A ray is the part of the straight line beginning at a given point and extending limitlessly in one direction. A line segment is a part of the straight line between two of its points, including the two points.

Ray - A ray is part of a line that has one endpoint. It continues in one direction without ending.

1. Point A point is an location in space, it has no dimensions. 2. Line A line is a set of points that extends infinitely in opposite directions. 3. Line Segment A line segment is a part of a line that has a two endpoints and not extends in opposite directions. 4. Ray A ray is a part of a line that has one endpoint and extends in one direction. 5. Plane A plane contains an infinite number of points on a flat surface that extends in all directions.
