graph{y>x+1 [-20, 20, -10, 10]}

Graph the line y=x+1 as a dotted line, and shade the area above it.

Explanation:

If the equation being graphed was y>=x+1 we would use a solid line, because the line y=x+1 is included. Since it is y>x+1, that line is not included, but all the areas of the plane with y values greater than x+1 are included.
