In this paper, we introduce the definitions of affinelike, preaffinelike, generalized affinelike, and generalized preaffinelike functions by use of "pointed convex cone", and prove that those definitions of generalized affine functions are all different. We discuss optimization problems in topological vector spaces and obtain a theorem of alternative and a scalarization theorem. Our inequalities are given by partial order relations. Our generalized affineness may be used for many discussions in mathematics or applied mathematics wherever the affineness is a condition.
