Answer: Yes it is linear.</h3>
Explanation:
The given equation is the same as y = 0x - 7. It matches the form y = mx+b which is slope intercept form of a linear equation.
The slope m = 0 always applies to horizontal lines. All points on this line have a y coordinate of -7.
If the test gives a positive result for an infected person 98% of the time, that means that 2% of the time, it gives a negative result for an infected person, which would be a false negative.
If the test is 97% accurate for non-infected people, that means that it gives a negative result 97% of the time. So a positive result will be given 3% of the time for non-infected people, which is a false positive.
