Agree.
By mathematical terms, a line stretches on in either direction for an infinite amount of points, something that is not measurable in the real world. Everything we loosely call 'lines' that we may spot, are in fact line segments. Take for instance the blue lines on a sheet of notebook paper. We may refer to them as lines but since they do have endpoints, they are line segments.
