Answer:

No, because it does not have a constant rate of change.

Explanation:

On the x side of the table, there is a constant rate of change (+1). However, on the y side, it is not. The first change is +7, the next +5, and the last +6. The rate of change has to be constant on both sides for the table to be considered linear.
