(A) $(i)$ False,because $ax + by + c = 0$ is a linear equation in two variables only if both $a$ and $b$ are non-zero (i.e.,$a^2 + b^2 \neq 0$).
$(ii)$ False,because a linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions.
$(iii)$ False,the points $(2, 0)$ and $(-3, 0)$ lie on the $x$-axis because their $y$-coordinates are $0$. The point $(4, 2)$ lies in the first quadrant,and the point $(0, 5)$ lies on the $y$-axis.

The force exerted to pull a cart is directly proportional to the acceleration produced in the body. Express the statement as a linear equation of two variables and draw the graph of the same by taking the constant mass equal to $6 \,kg$. Read from the graph,the force required when the acceleration produced is $(i)$ $5 \,m/s^2$,$(ii)$ $6 \,m/s^2$.

The work done by a body on application of a constant force is the product of the constant force and the distance travelled by the body in the direction of force. Express this in the form of a linear equation in two variables and draw its graph by taking the constant force as $3$ units. What is the work done when the distance travelled is $2$ units? Verify it by plotting the graph.
