Uniform linear motion is uniform motion along a linear path or a straight line. The direction of motion is fixed. So, it is not accelerated.

For e.g.: a car running with uniform speed of 10km/hr on a straight road.

Uniform circular motion is uniform motion along a circular path. The direction of motion changes continuously. So, it is accelerated.

For e.g.: motion of earth around the sun.
