You can often break down complex questions like this by taking them a bit at a time. A linking verb must be a verb. So, you check to see if both examples are verbs, and you find that 'an' is not one.
Therefore, since 'an' is not a verb, it cannot be a linking verb, so the answer must be 'am'.

By the way, I notice you are blonde and from Indiana. I hope you will learn a lot on this forum.
