y = 3x^2 + 7 is nonlinear.  The other 3 functions are linear.

Answer:

Linear functions are


y=2x-9\\y=-10.2\\3x+5y=15

The only non-linear function is


y=3x^(2) +7

Basically, a linear function is defined by those which curve is a line. Or their polynomial expression is first grade, that is, the major exponent of variables is one, which is not the case with the third function, that's why is not linear.
