Is magnetic susceptibility mere number in case of linear material and a tensor in case of non-linear material?

Hey mate ^_^

In electrostatics,it was taught to us that the electric susceptibility is mere number in case of linear dielectric materials.(So direction of polarization and electric field created due to that polarized material is same.)

Yes, it does. Typically, crystals tend to have anisotropic magnetic susceptibility tensors. But even individual atoms can have one. This has actually important applications in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) studies of proteins by putting them in solution with e.g. lanthanide ions which exhibit such a highly anisotropic magnetic susceptibility tensor then, and this can then be used to facilitate resolving the protein structure
