Don't use line-height ... use padding-after= since you want to keep
the blue background behind the text. You would use space-after= if
you wanted to use the parent area's background colour.

Another approach would be to create a block-container with your
background colour and then just flow the text into the top of the
block container.
You are conflating line areas with block areas, trying to do in a
line area what I think you are witnessing in page areas in other products.
<fo:block> creates a bunch of lines, which is why these properties
are all going into your line areas.
<fo:block-container> creates a rectangle into which you flow
<fo:block> constructs, so I suspect you just need to decorate a
container with what you need.
I hope this helps.
