We study the effect of a dissipative environment on the orientational relaxation of a three-dimensional quantum linear rotor. We provide a derivation of the Hamiltonian of a linear rotor coupled to a harmonic bath from first principles, confirming earlier conjectures. The dynamics generated by this Hamiltonian is investigated by the hierarchical equations-of-motion method assuming a Drude spectral density of the bath. We perform numerically accurate simulations and analyze the behavior of orientational correlation functions and the rotational structures of infrared absorption and Raman scattering spectra. We explore the features of orientational correlation functions and their spectra for a wide range of system-bath couplings, bath memory times, and temperatures. We discuss the signatures of the orientational relaxation in the underdamped regime, the strongly damped regime, and the librational regime. We show that the behavior of orientational correlation functions and their spectra can conveniently be analyzed in terms of three characteristic times, which are explicitly expressed in terms of the parameters of the Hamiltonian.
