While it's not a big deal one way or the other in this specific case, the exercise is meant to be done freehand in its entirety. The instructions will explicitly state if you should use a ruler - if nothing is stated to that effect, you should be freehanding your linework.

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
