Some hot pixels will have a variable output from frame to frame. This means that they will not properly dark subtract. The line is just from the readout time from the hot pixel. It will also have variability due to the variable output of the hot pixel. Some software use a pixel map of dodgy pixels at the same time as dark subtracting. This then replaces the hot pixel with an average of nearby pixels. This solves the problem.
