Answer:

Rosalie is correct, a line can have a line of symmetry.

Explanation:

If you draw a line, a line of symmetry to that line would be perpendicular to the original line. Because lines are straight, they have an infinite number of lines of symmetry.

A line totally can have a line of symmetry. while it does not have width (therefore cannot put the line of symmetry through its "width"), it does have a length like any other shape. If we take a 4 unit line, we could put the line of symmetry at the 2 unit mark.

^sorry, im rushing a bit so you might have to paraphrase !
