I've never really paid attention, TBH! I think both would work just as well. If you went with blank pages, I think guests might be more inclined to write little blurbs, maybe even draw some cute little doodles? I know I would, anyway!
Of all the guest books I have seen, they have been lined and folks just sign their names. Some people don't even sign them and there is nothing you can do to force them if they don't want to. To get the ball rolling, have your bridal party and parents sign the guestbook the night before at the rehearsal so that guests at the wedding know what you want done by seeing how others have signed it.
We did unlined so that people could write little messages to us. Almost everyone just signed their names. :( If you decide you want anything more than names in your guestbook, I would do unlined and put up a little sign on the table that instructs people to leave well wishes, advice, etc...
I say lined because some people write crooked and that doesnt look good.
Unlined would be best. It'll give guests more space to write personal messages instead of only sigining names (since that's what I've seen in the past happen with lined books). It's more of a memento so people can write however they want. Crazy, messy, bubble letters would be fine with me!
And no question is silly on WB! All questions are welcome and appreciated. If you have a question, another bee will likely have it too.

This is a silly question, but should the guest books be lined or unlined?? With the unlined people would be able to write more notes but it would be more structured with the lined. I never paid attention to this at weddings before : )
