Number of conjugacy classes in general affine group of fixed degree over a finite field is polynomial function of field size

From Groupprops

Statement

Suppose is a natural number. Then, there exists a polynomial function of degree such that, for any prime power , the number of conjugacy classes in the general affine group (i.e., the general affine group of degree over the finite field of size ) is .

General observations

Below, we list some general observations about the polynomial in giving number of conjugacy classes in .

Item Value
Degree of polynomial
Leading coefficient of polynomial 1, i.e., it is always a monic polynomial
Factors of polynomial no common factors to all polynomials
Coefficients of polynomial The polynomial is an integer-valued polynomial, i.e., it sends integers to integers. Is it also true that all coefficients of the polynomial are integers? Seems so from first few examples
