If you are calling it fiction, no. You can write anything as fiction with a narrator who uses "I" and describes actions and events as if he or she were really there. They can be completely made up.
If the narrative is billed as a memoir or as nonfiction, yes, it has to be true.

What does linear mean in literature terms?
Linear usually refers to the type of narrative (the way a story is told). A linear narrative is one that is told from beginning to end chronologically. Most stories are told in this way because it is the easiest to understand. Examples of linear narrative are too numerous to count. Here instead are some examples of stories that are told using a non-linear structure: The View from Saturday (by E.L. Konigsberg), Wuthering Heights (by Emily Bronte), Slaughterhouse-Five (by Kurt Vonnegut), or anything by Chuck Pahluhniuk. The non-linear narrative is used more often in film because chronology (the time in which a scene is set) is easier to demonstrate in film than in written literature. Examples of non-linear narratives in film include: Citizen Kane, Annie Hall, Pulp Fiction, Mulholland Drive, Memento, and 500 Days of Summer.

Shakespeare wrote or at least co-wrote 38 plays and also wrote two long narrative poems. That's 40 stories (more if you consider that some plays tell more than one story at once). Of course Shakespeare did not "make up" these stories. Everything he wrote (with the exceptions of the plays The Tempest and A Midsummer Night's Dream) told stories he had read in books or seen in other plays. Shakespeare's greatness lies not in the stories he thought up, but how he told stories he had heard.
