{la .ky. linji} means "K's Line", as a name. I think you mean {ky. linji .abu. 
e .ebu}.

{ky. linji .abu. ce .ebu} is correct, if A and E are points. {ky. linji .abu. 
e .ebu} implies that A and E are (possibly different) sets of points, each of 
which defines the line K.

Again drop {la}. There are infinitely many sets that contain A and E (and other 
things), some of which do not define lines, so no.
