The answer is: Yes, it is a function. The function is linear.

The explanation is shown below:

1. You must keep on mind the following information:
f(x) is a function when for each value of the domain
there is an unique value of
. For example:

$x=2\\y=6$

2. A linear function has the following form:

y=mx+b

Where
is the slope and
is the y-intercept.

3. When the slope is zero, you have that
y=b . Therefore:

$3y-8=4\\y=(12)/(3)\\y=4$

4. As you can see, it is a linear function with
m=0 .
