You can specify each line separately with an -if-:
************
 sysuse auto, clear
 tw (lfit price mpg if rep78==1) (lfit price mpg if rep78==2) ///
  (lfit price mpg if rep78==3, lpattern(dash)) (lfit price mpg if rep78==4, lpattern(dot))

**
**or build the command using macros 
**** to avoid manually typing all categories of your ID:

 levelsof rep78, loc(ll)
 foreach v in `ll' {
 	loc gr (lfit price mpg if rep78==`v')  `gr'
 	}

tw (scatter price mpg) `gr' ,  ///
/* you can differentiate the lines by 
changing the lpatterns,
or you can edit the label 
with an option like: */ ///
 	legend(on order(1 "Dots" 2 "Rep78 Category 2" 3 "three"))
************
