Question 161303: What is this line.... <-----------> is it a ray? a line segment? or WHAT!?

This is a line...the definition of a line indicates an infinite length...since your drawing has arrows on both sides...that indicates infinite length as well.
Therefore, your line is a line.
A ray would be an arrow on only one side of the line like this:
----------->
A segment would be no arrows like this:
-----------
So remember:
2 arrows = line
1 arrow = ray
0 arrows = segment
