Linear algebra moves steadily to n vectors in m-dimensional space. We still want combinations of the columns (in the column space). We still get m equations to produce b (one for each row). Those equations may or may not have a solution. They always have a least-squares solution. The interplay of columns and rows is the heart of linear algebra.
