If "lines goes up" meant things get better for the customers, the employees, and the world in general, then people would be cheering it on. Usually it means it gets worse for at LEAST one of the three, and sometimes all 3.

Here, "line goes down" is following Twitter getting worse for the customers, the users, the employees, and the world in general. So people will cheer as it crashes.
