Answer

The graph of all the complex numbers, $z$, will be a straight line passing through the origin with $y = x$ and slope = 1 (argument $\theta = 45^\circ$).

Work Step by Step

For $z = x+yi$, The real and imaginary parts of z are equal, shall mean, $y = x$ The graph of all the complex numbers, $z$, satisfying the captioned condition will be a straight line passing through the origin with $y = x$ and slope = 1 (argument $\theta = 45^\circ$).
