A charged particle is free to move in an electric field. Will it always move along an electric line if force?

Dear abhingya,

In physics, a force field is a way to picture the effects that electric charges have on one another. Instead of talking about the force a positive (+) charge exerts on an electron, we can say the charge creates a force "field" in the empty space around it. An electron put down at any place in this force field is pulled towards the + charge; a positive charge set down at the same place is pushed away.
