 Line

image
A long thin mark made by a pen, pencil, etc.

In geometry a line:

* is straight (no curves),
* has no thickness, and
* extends in both directions without end (infinitely).

If it does have ends it would be called a "Line Segment".

"Line" normally means straight, so say "curve" if it has a curve.

See: Line Segment
