I'm a bit confused, how does a 2D graph with a curved X axis work? Does this just mean to say that if we saw things distorted with an outward curve, then something that is moving in a curve would look to be moving in a straight line? And what's the point of such an observation?

The polar or cylindrical coordinate systems are examples of graphs that can be though of as having a curved x-axis.

  Sure, but that is irrelavent since the topic at hand is neither a polar nor cylindrical graph.
