Answer: 1 plane

Think of a flat sheet of paper. If you draw a line through that paper, you can rotate the paper around the line to lake it spin like a fan blade. This suggests infinitely many planes go through the same straight line. If you add a point somewhere off the line, then the plane becomes fixed and there is only one plane that goes through both the line and the point at the same time.
