Where you downloaded the file should have also had instructions. https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en#linux

A tar.xz file is a tarball. You can extract it using the tar command, then change working directory to the new directory and run the start-tor-browser script

$ tar xf tor-browser-linux64-4.0_en-US.tar.xz
$ cd tor-browser_en-US/
$ ./start-tor-browser

This question has been asked very many times.

The Browser Bundle isn't 'installed'. It's a script you'll run when you want to utilize Tor.

Simply on terminal

sudo apt-get install tor

And then you can use either directly use the tor browser or proxy switchy extension to use tor in chrome.
