Are your choices only "point, line, or none of the above"?

If so, think about it this way, when you look at the following images,

Does it look just like a dot? If so, it will be a point
Does it look like a straight line? If so, it will be a line
If it doesn't look like either of the two above, it must be "nove of the above".

a) a farmer's field.
It does not look like a dot or a line. It looks like a rectangle (a plane).
It must be: None of the above

B) a telephone wire.
It doesn't look like a dot but it does look like a straight line so:
It must be: Line (or line segment because there are definite endpoints to a telephone wire)

c) a parking lot.
It does not look like a dot or a line. It looks like a rectangle (a plane).
It must be: None of the above

d) your hometown on a large map.
When looking on a large map, it WILL look like a dot so:
It must be: point
