An infinite number of lines can intersect a point.
y=x (red line)
y=2x (green line)
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+x%2C+2x%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, of TWO functions x and 2x).
y=5x red line (red line)
3y=x
y=x/3 (green line)
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+5x%2C+x%2F3%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, of TWO functions 5x and x/3).
