Answer: Yes and no?

Step-by-step explanation: Yes, because since it is one single number, it would be considered a "linear" polynomial. But no, because since there is only one term, it wouldn't be considered a polynomial.

I only just learned about linear polynomials, so I think the safe answer would just be no, since there is only one term.
