Linear functions represent a **constant** rate of change, while exponential functions represent a **variable** (or **proportional**) rate of change.

In more detail:
- Linear functions exhibit a steady increase or decrease; for example, if you plot a linear function, the slope remains the same throughout.
- Exponential functions, on the other hand, grow or decay at rates that change based on the current value, leading to growth that accelerates or decelerates. This is characterized by their characteristic "curved" shape when graphed.
