Answer:

Explanation:

When you delete ( rm ) a link the counter is decremented (reduced) by one. If the link counter reaches 0 the filesystem removes the inode and marks the space as available for use. In short, as long as you do not delete the last link the file will remain. Edit: The file will remain even if the last link is removed.
