Googling [visual foxpro wine] gets you some results. My understanding is later versions of VFP are not fully supported and/or thoroughly tested.
A better option IMO would be to install a VM manager such as Sun's VirtualBox on Linux, then install a Windows OS on that, then run your VFP app on that virtualized Windows OS.
