Is Linux free or do you have to buy it?

Can be either. You can get paid for supported versions and free
equivalents. Most home users would opt for a non paid one. Larger
corporates will often go for the paid versions because they have far
more proactive support and patch management (and the cost of the
license is only a small part of TCO in the bigger picture).

Linux is always free. You may elect to pay for a support contract, however.

A semantic argument. You want RHEL or similar, you pay for it.
