The video tutorial explains how to graph a line when given the slope and Y-intercept, focusing on a case where the slope is 0 and the Y-intercept is 5. It covers the slope-intercept form of a line, Y = MX + B, and demonstrates how to graph a horizontal line, Y = 5, by plotting the Y-intercept and understanding that a slope of 0 results in no vertical change. The tutorial also discusses the implications of slope on line orientation, emphasizing that a horizontal line indicates a slope of 0, while a vertical line would be undefined.
