FWIW, it seems bash and sh report line number differently.
# grep -n ^ ~/tmp/ln
1:#!/bin/sh
2:echo f line: $LINENO
3:f()
4:{
5:echo f line: $LINENO
6:}
7:
8:f
9:echo main line: $LINENO
10:f
# /bin/sh ~/tmp/ln
f line: 2
f line: 3
main line: 9
f line: 3
# bash ~/tmp/ln
f line: 2
f line: 5
main line: 9
f line: 5
