What do you call a line that intersects a circle at 2 points?

Secant

line is a straight set of points that extend in opposite directions without ending.

A line segment is a part of a line between two endpoints.

Any line that intersects a given circle at two different points is called a SECANT of that circle and part of secant intercepted between these points is called CHORD of that circle.

Secant is a line and chord is a line segment. And tangent does not intersect circle in two points
