Quinoline "poisons" the Lindlar catalyst, thereby enhancing its selectivity. This prevents the hydrogenation reaction from going from the alkyne to the alkane, and instead from the alkyne to the alkene.

Why can the cracking of an alkane into an alkene not be described as oxidation since the alkane loses two hydrogens?

Technically it can be described as oxidation. Technically it is an oxidation reaction, although I've never heard it described as "the oxidation of an alkane". Strange, since when an alkene is converted to an alkane by hydrogenation, we do hear it called "reduction of an alkene". Perhaps this is because the term "alkane oxidation" has been appropriated for the promising research into efficiently capturing energy by combining alkanes with oxygen at low temperatures.
