I think the linking verb is should. Have is the helping verb and should links it into the sentence properly.
the linking verbs are: am, is, are, was, were, has been, had been, have been, shall be, will be, might have been, should have been, would have been, appear, become, seems, look, feel, grow, remain, sound, taste. so no could be is not a linking verb.
No. The verb to become is a linking verb, and the verb to be is a linking verb, but they are two separate verbs.

No. All forms of to be (am, is, are, was were, been) are linking verbs, but there are also others, such as to stay, remain, grow.
"Did" is not a linking verb.
The sentence is "Shelly should have been more careful on the path." The complete linking verb is "should have been."

No. It is two auxilary verbs. "Should" is a modal auxilary, and "have" is the auxilary used to make the perfect aspect. "Should have" can be used with linking verbs (he should have been happy) or with action verbs (he should have driven), but is itself neither.
No, "been" is not a linking verb. It is the past participle of the verb "be" and is used to form continuous tenses or the passive voice. Linking verbs connect the subject of a sentence to a subject complement, describing or renaming the subject.
should have been
Type your answer here... First of, the question should have been constructed as "Is treatment AN action verb, a linking verb or neither?" The answer is neither. The word treatment is a NOUN and not a verb. A verb is an action word. The action word for 'treatment" is TREAT.
"Has" can function as both a linking verb and a helping verb. As a linking verb, it connects the subject to a subject complement that renames or describes it (e.g., "She has been a teacher for 10 years"). As a helping verb, it is used with a main verb to form a verb phrase (e.g., "She has eaten dinner").
According to my wonderful English teacher (and my memory), "had been" is a verb phrase, but "had" is a helping verb.
