Final answer:

The presented statement is unclear, but in graphing the inequality y < 1, one shades the area below the line y = 1. The process includes linear inequalities with a dashed line for strict inequalities. Absolute inequalities are graphed as two separate inequalities with shading between the lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement 'When graphing y less than 1, it is over Graphing linear and absolute inequalities' is not clear in its meaning and seems to involve a typographical error. However, when graphing the inequality y less than 1 (y < 1), you would shade the region below the line y = 1 on a coordinate plane. This involves linear inequalities, where you typically use a dashed line to depict the boundary when the inequality is strict (does not include the line itself) and a solid line when the inequality is not strict (includes the line).

For absolute inequalities, such as |y| < 1, you would graph two inequalities: y < 1 and y > -1, and shade the region between the two lines (without including the lines if they are dashed).
