Sorry, it's Pen/Bezier tool (Shift-F6) > click starting point > DON'T DRAG and DOUBLE-click where you'd like your end point.

There are multiple ways to create a straight line in Inkscape. They are all less convenient than creating, e.g., a rectangle. And what you end up with isn't a straight line in essence, only in presentation. That's quite useful, but it means that it doesn't act quite right in many contexts. The system doesn't know it's intended to be a straight line, so it's subject to easily and accidentally being modified into, e.g., a line that bulges. In comparison if you draw a rectangle, it's a rectangle until you explicitly convert it into something else, say an object that looks like a rectangle.
It's possible that this is a limitation of SVG, but Inkscape has it's own dialect of svg already (though it still used the svg suffix), so it could easily be added. (They should have their own suffix, say svgi, so that you could easily tell which files are actual svg and which are inkscape, but that hasn't caused me any problems so far. I'm not sure what extra information they share.)
