Hi Artem,

You can determine if the issue is a graphics related issue or a display issue by taking a screenshot.

If the line shows up in the screenshot that would indicate a graphics issue. If the line does not show up in the screenshot that would indicate a display issue.

The following article has information about the acceptable operating temperatures for your MacBook Pro which will you may find helpful: Keep your Mac notebook within acceptable operating temperatures - Apple Support
