A spectral line is a dark or bright line in an otherwise uniform and continuous spectrum, resulting from emission or absorption of light in a narrow frequency range, compared with the nearby frequencies. Spectral lines are often used to identify atoms and molecules.

When gases or vapour of a chemical are heated in an electric arc light is emitted. If the ray of light is passed through a prism a line spectrum is produced. It is type of emissions spectra.
Yes it different from emission and absorption spectrum
