well you use a formula ..... the one that i use most is y=mx+b this formula is slope-intercept formula the slope of the line is m, and the intercept is the b(the y intercept). Say the slope(m) is 3/2 the starting from the y intercept (in this case let it be 2, which is the coordinate [0,2]) you would go to the right 2 units and up 3 units(3/2=rise/run) to get another point. With that point(which in this case would be [2,5]) you can make a straight line through the two points to get your line on the graph. you can make as many points as you want, just keep using the slope(in this case 3/2).
Another way, with graph paper: if you are dealing with a straight line, then pick two values of x, and solve for the respective y values. Plot these two points on the graph paper, then using a straight edge, connect the dots, and extend beyond each point.

What is the difference between a line graph and broken line graph?
a broken line graph has numbres going everywhere and a line graph has numbers going on a steady rate (e.g 50,10,90 for a broken line graph) (eg 2,4,6 for a line graph) hope i helped :D
