A set of vectors remains linearly independent after a change of basis, as linear independence is an intrinsic property that does not depend on the chosen basis. The discussion emphasizes the importance of using the correct basis-free definition of linear independence rather than relying on matrix representations, which may lead to confusion. Understanding this concept is crucial for anyone studying linear algebra and its applications.
