Your English isn't too bad at all -- and I guarantee you it is MUCH, MUCH better than my facility with YOUR native tongue (no matter what it is)!
You are correct that, for sinusoidal steady state conditions that the V-I "phasors" exhibit the same type of linear relationship that we are used to seeing with resistors in DC circuits. The V-I "characteristic" does not. This is very likely an English-subtle-point issue.
If you plot voltage versus current for a capacitor in sinusoidal steady state, you get an ellipse, not a straight line.
And, just to be clear (again, very possibly an English-subtle-point item), the validity of superposition is not only the main criterion for establishing if a system is linear, it is THE criterion -- as in most sources DEFINE a linear system as being one in which superposition holds. It is a necessary and sufficient condition. A fine-point distinction that can sometimes be very valuable.
