Is active is a cutoff region of transistor?

The active region of a transistor is when the transistor has sufficient base current to turn the transistor on and for a larger current to flow from emitter to collector. This is the region where the transistor is on and fully operating.


Transistor is a linear or non linear circuit element?

it is not a passive device .y because it is used to amplify the voltage and current .so as according to the definition of active device is the device which is used to amplify the current r voltage .hence transistor is a active device.

Is transistor a passive element?

No, the transistor is very active; slight changes to the input at the base produce dynamic and substantial activity at the collector. Both resistors and coils are examples of passive elements/devices because their individual tasks and values are firmly set and do not vary.
