Step-by-step explanation:
LINEAR FUNCTIONS have graphs that are straight lines. These graphs represent constant rates of change. NONLINEAR FUNCTIONS are functions that do NOT have constant rates of change. Therefore, their graphs are NOT straight lines.

Answer:
The equation of a linear function has no exponents higher than 1, and the graph of a linear function is a straight line. The equation of a non-linear function has at least one exponent higher than 1, and the graph of a non-linear function is a curved line.
