No, it's not a fatty acid or essential fatty acid.
Linoleic acid
Olive oil mainly consists of a monounsaturated fatty acid called oleic acid

A fatty acid that is unsaturated is coconut oil. This oil has a whole list of benefits that range from lotion for the skin to deep conditioner for the hair.
It is a fatty acid, usually derived from vegetable oil or animal oil (milk).
It is made up of glycerol(alcohol) and fatty acid(carboxylic acid)
Linolenic acid is an organic compound that is a fatty acid and that can be found in many vegetable oils, chia, flaxseed oil, rapeseed oil, and soybeans.
Strictly speaking, no they are not. When a fatty acid is reacted with glycerine and forms the triglyceride then it is a fat or oil.
Free fatty acids are created by separating fatty acids from the fat molecule. To find the ration you must add a solvent agent. The lower the ratio is the better the storage and shelf life of the respective oil or fat will be.
Corn oils has similar fatty acid composition with sun,soya oils with linoleic cca 50 % Cotton seed oil has less linoleic values and higher linolenic values. This oil is more dry.
Coconut is mainly saturated fatty acid. It solidifies at 25C.
