Classes Constructor and Destructor

Hello, I am writing few lines of codes for my project and I am not sure how to approach this problem.

The instruction says:

Add a function call loadDocument that takes the name of the file. The function will read in the text file and create a new Line for each sentence read with Line id equal to the location in the text file. After, set the linecount.

Is Line a class or an array of the class? In previous classes, I did make an array of classes. Also, how do you mean by location in the text file. Can you please help me?

Here's what I have so:
