Given this is a Linux Based System , one of the best ways to get files out of the Linux VM is by setting up FTP Server in your Linux VM. The steps of Setting Linux VM is detailed here (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/holgerkenn/archive/2014/03/19/setting-up-a-linux-ftp-server-on-windows-azure.aspx)

After you have setup the FTP Server you can access the files via any FTP Client.
