They're both linear functions... if that's what you were getting at.

Yes, if by family you mean a linear line, regardless of positive/negative slope
No, if by family you mean a linear line but one has a positive slope, the other negative..

"family" is a term your math book or teacher made up cause ive never seen it before so if you could clarify that would be nice

No. they have nothing in common. Their slopes are different and their y-intercepts are different.
