Line can also mean a person's family history, like where their ancestors came from. There are different types of lines, like a direct line that connects only ancestors and descendants, or a maternal or paternal line that traces back through a person's mother or father.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A line can refer to:

  1. A boundary or limit between two things, such as the line between right and wrong.
  2. A person's job or profession, for example, "What line of work are you in?"
  3. A series of related products in manufacturing.
  4. A person's ancestry or lineage, such as "The Smiths come from a long line of doctors."

There are also different types of lines:

  • Collateral line: A line of descent connecting people who are not directly related, but who share a common ancestor.
  • Direct line: A line of descent traced only through direct ancestors and descendants.
  • Maternal line: A person's ancestry traced through their mother.
  • Paternal line: A person's ancestry traced through their father.

For example, if someone says "I come from a long line of farmers," they mean that their family has been farming for many generations. The different types of lines can be used to trace a person's family history and relationships with others.
