The video tutorial explains the characteristics of horizontal and vertical lines, including their equations and slopes. Horizontal lines are flat, touch the y-axis, and have a slope of zero, with equations in the form of y equals a number. Vertical lines go up and down, touch the x-axis, and have an undefined slope, with equations in the form of x equals a number. The tutorial also covers how to determine the equations of these lines using points and discusses the parallel and perpendicular relationships of these lines with the axes.
