How is it possible for helium to have 8 spectral lines when it only has 2 electrons?

It has more lines in it compared to hydrogen emission spectrum. It is mainly because the helium atom has more electrons than a hydrogen atom. Therefore, more electrons get excited when we pass a white light beam through a helium sample, and it causes the emission of more spectral lines
