Like the function y = 2x (6)

I believe the answer is:

linear

(Other definitions for linear that I've seen before include "Involving one dimension only" , "In a straight line" , "(Of narrative) sequential" , "Measured lengthwise" , "Long and narrow, of one dimension" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
