You can only get assigned an IP address from the ranges available for the data centers where your Linodes are located. I don't believe any of these networks are "class A."
The terms "class A, B, C" became pretty useless with the introduction of classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) in 1993 (hence the designation "classless") -- to better support switched network fabrics and slow the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses.
I don't believe you can request a specific IP address when you spin up a Linode. IP addresses are assigned from a pool of available addresses at the time your Linode is created.
