The equation is not separable, because $x^2-xy=x(x-y)$ cannot be written as a product of a function of $x$ and a function of $y$ on an open region. For example, the ratio $(x^2-x{y}_1)/(x^2-x{y}_2)=(x-y_1)/(x-y_2)$ depends on $x$ for distinct fixed $y_1,y_2$, whereas a separated product would give a constant ratio.

It is not homogeneous in the sense of a homogeneous first-order differential equation: the right-hand side is not a function of $y/x$ alone. It is also not a homogeneous linear differential equation, since moving the $xy$ term to the left leaves a nonzero forcing.

It is linear, since it has the standard linear ordinary differential equation formThus the classifications are (a) no, (b) no, (c) yes.
