This is because PlotStyle and PlotJoined (or Joined in v. 6) are  
options of "ListPlot"  but are not obtions of "Graphics". To see the  
difference between the two sets of options here:

Complement[Options[ListPlot], Options[Graphics]]

Only the values of options of Graphics are given when you evaluate  
AbsoluteOptions[graph].
