In which year did Aristotle first develop his classification system?

It is probably impossible to put a date on when Aristotle began to develop his classification system. Aristotle was a student in Plato's academy for 20 years from 367 BC he could have started developing his classification system during this time.

What were the contributions of Aristotle and Linnaeus to the classification of living things?

Aristotle develops one of the first methods of classification based on observation of the characteristics of animals and plants. Plants were divided into shrubs, herbs, and trees. Animals were divided into aquatic, terrestrial, and aerial. The method does not apply for organisms like amphibians. Linnaeus develops the binomial system we use today made up of two words that identify the organism: genus and species.
