Just one simple doubt here.
Can we use different scales on the x and y axes be used for denoting linear equations/inequalities?
:/

If you are asking "will the graph still be a straight line" the answer is that as long as your axes are "uniform" (if the distance between "0" and "1" is a certain distance then the distance between "n" and "n+1" is that same distance for all n), yes. If you allow non-uniform axes, no.
