Are previously downloaded Steam games transferable from Windows to Linux? (reddthat.com)

I've backed up many of the Steam games I had installed in Windows. Am I able to use these on Linux or do I need to re-download them?

No problem! I experienced the very same thing when I was still dual-booting so I know it well. :) Other than media disk, it doesn't worth sharing disks between Linux and Windows. And Windows still can cause problems there.
