Don't google first. Try Emacs Wiki first: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/Search. You'll find pages like this one: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/LineNumbers.

Actually, try Emacs itself first, for help. Unfortunately, vanilla Emacs can't display line numbers at the beginnings of lines, so Info and M-x apropos won't get you far on this one.
