We introduce the concept of {\em maximal lineability cardinal number}, $\mL(M)$, of a subset $M$ of a topological vector space and study its relation to the cardinal numbers known as: additivity $A(M)$, homogeneous lineability $\HL(M)$, and lineability $\LL(M)$ of $M$. In particular, we will describe, in terms of $\LL$, the lineability and spaceability of the families of the following Darboux-like functions on $\real^n$, $n\ge 1$: extendable, Jones, and almost continuous functions.
