The first line divides the plane into two regions. The second line intersects one line, creating two regions. The third line intersects two lines, creating three regions. Similarly, the fourth line intersects three lines and creates four regions, the fifth line intersects four lines and creates five regions, and the sixth line intersects five lines and creates six regions. Totaling the regions created results in $2+2+3+4+5+6=22$ regions, which is answer choice $\boxed{22}$.
