Linked: A monster is “linked” if one or both of the following is true 1. A Decode Talker placed in the center Main Monster Zone does not point to anything, as there are no Monster Zones directly adjacent to the tip of its Link Arrows.

Link Material: These are the face-up monsters on your side of the field that you use to Link Summon. This is the number of Link Arrows the monster has, and also the number of Link Materials you need to use to Link Summon it.
