Linphone works with SIP accounts.  I have 3 SIP accounts - only one of
which is bridged to the ancient telco network.  Linphone does not
directly deal with "lines".  This is a question for your bridging
provider.  You did not mention your bridging provider.  I use
diamondcard.us to bridge SIP to telco and jmp.chat to bridge XMPP to
telco.

Linphone doesn't do "phone numbers".  But maybe you have a bridging provider
with account localparts that look like phone numbers.

It certainly works with multiple SIP accounts.  Does the Linphone
company provide a bridging service, and you are using them perhaps?
In that case the ambiguity is understandable - same name for the SIP
client and the service.
