The light cannot travel in straight line is a false statement.
Explanation:
Light from a resource comes as billions of lines and each line of light travels in a straight line. It appears to be scattered when it becomes secondary source like sunlight in cloudy day, where sunlight is reflected from the clouds. Smooth surfaces reflect light perpendicular to the incident path and rough surface always scatters the light in various angles.
Light can travel even in vacuum and it will be a perfect straight line in it. It may not change its direction unless it interacts with an object or medium. Shadow in cloudy and non-cloudy days can be a perfect example that light travels in a straight line.
