The video tutorial explains how to graph the linear equation y = 2x - 1. It begins with creating a table of values to find points for the graph. The points are then plotted, and a line is drawn through them, extending to infinity. The tutorial also covers the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, to verify the graph, explaining the y-intercept and slope as rise over run.
