Bricks- especially the type known as firebrick- are able to withstand the high heat levels in a fire- so you do not burn your house down.
They are lined with fire bricks because of the intense heat and chemical reactions that are present in the blast furnace. The temperature alone would quickly melt the outer metal shell. Different types of bricks are used in the different parts of the furnace depending on the temperature in that part of the furnace, the lowest temperatures being at the top, and the highest temperatures in the bottom in what is known as the bosh and the hearth. Abrasion and mechanical damage can also occur to the bricks, which is why blast funaces need to be shut down after a certain number of years to be relined, or shut down briefly for maintenance which would include adding more cooling in areas where the brick lining is getting too thin.

792 feet is a measure of length, not area. Therefore the width of the bricks is irrelevant. The question is simply about the number of 8-inch bricks that, when lined up, form a line that is 792 feet long. The answer is 792*12/8 = 1188 bricks. This assumes that 1187 thicknesses of cement between the bricks have no effect!
