There is a theorem of Rosenlicht ("Some basic theorems on algebraic groups", 1956, Theorem 13) asserting that a quotient of a connected algebraic group by its center is linear. So a connected algebraic group with trivial center is linear.

Is it true of connected complex Lie groups? I.e. areis a connected complex Lie groupsgroup with a trivial center lineara subgroup of $GL(n,\mathbb{C})$? Is it algebraic?
