Was that regression line fit weighted by population?

No. Regardless of the state populations, if the line is a perfect fit, then the whole US population would be directly on the line. The entire US would have a partisan lean of 0 (by definition) and according to the source has a bachelors degree attainment of 32.9%, which is very close to the line but slightly above it.
