Yeah, u will not be affected by Ransomware as full. Because linux wont install any package or update automatically without ur knowledge. If some malware is affected to repos in linux, it will be removed or unused by Linux as default.
But these won't stop ransomware. So avoid installing unwanted PPAs or repos. It doesn't need any admin privileges to encrypt the contents in your machine or server. Just need a access to the files or folders as such normal users will have access to their own files so no matter what OS they're using, ransomware will attack. Prevent as you can.
