No

Two linear equations will only intercept at one point.

For example,

$y = 3 x - 1$ $y=3x-1$ and $y = x$ $y=x$

These two equations will intersect when equating the equations,

$3 x - 1 = x$ $3x-1=x$
$2 x - 1 = 0$ $2x-1=0$
$2 x = 1$ $2x=1$
$x = \frac{1}{2}$ $x=1/2$

Sub the value of $x$ $x$ into any of the 2 equations above.

So the only point of intersection of these lines are $(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2})$ $(1/2,1/2)$
