To find out how to specify styles for GridLines, Plot with default GridLines.

plt = Plot[x^2+3x-4, {x,-5,5},
 
      Frame->True, Axes->False,
 
      PlotStyle->Blue,
 
      GridLines->Automatic];

Use AbsoluteOptions to see the GridLines specifications

First /@ (GridLines /. AbsoluteOptions[plt])

{{-4., {RGBColor[0., 0., 0.5], AbsoluteThickness[0.25]}}, 
{-5., {RGBColor[0., 0., 0.5], AbsoluteThickness[0.25]}}}

Follow the template

Plot[x^2+3x-4, {x,-5,5},
 
    Frame->True, Axes->False,
 
    PlotStyle->Blue,
 
    GridLines->{
        Table[{x,{GrayLevel[.7]}},{x,-4,4,2}],
 
        Table[{y,{Red}},{y,-5,15,5}]}];
