It's probably patterns that have a linear path that you can follow, like this one



But I'm not 100% sure, I've never heard this term lol

it's usually used for jump patterns that are placed in a line (or a curve?) and are awkward to hit

patterns that go pretty straight with little to no angle difference(usually referring to jumps)

In my interpretation, linear patterns are more commonly in older maps which are in straight lines / 90 degree angles and very low spacing. Generally, they have the same 1/2 rhythm as jumps, but can have some finger control mixed in depending on the map. You can find a lot of maps with linear patterns in the easier diffs of maps on old jump map spreadsheets. It's not a very common term nowadays since linears aren't used often in modern mapping.
