Since point P lies in the circle and this point also on line, then there are two points that line touches the circle.

If we draw a line passing through the circle the line touches the circle twice. So 2.

C.

Carcass...let me know my solution is correct.

From the diagram we can see that the line L passing trough the point P meets C in two points, SO option C

But what if the line L is not long enough to pass the edges of the circle, then L and C will have no common points, or L passes only through one point in the circle and not other, then both geometries will have only 1 common point?

Line doesn't have an end - it is infinite. You are talking about line segment.
