[what]

Although I don't think "a few" is an exact quantity, I don't agree with the definition of "relatively small" either. If I take 7000 line and compare it to 70,000 lines, 7K becomes relatively small and I could then call it "a few" lines.

Think about how people use the term. "I'm having a few people over for a bbq." Or "I ate a few cookies." Would you ever expect to see 700 people at the bbq or that the person ate 700 cookies? I think if you were to ask people "how many is 'a few'?" The answer would likely be a number greater than 1 and less than 10. Or maybe a range within 1 and 10.
