Solution

Line, as you might know, is the collection of points arranged in a particular manner one after the other. That is a straight line is formed only when a number of points are placed one after the other in a particular direction. So naturally, there is an involvement of directionality in it.

When we draw this line another direction, then also it is one dimensional
