g1 = Plot[Sin[x], {x, -Pi, Pi},
  Frame -> True,
  FrameLabel -> {"x", "y"},
  ImageSize -> 2.6*72]


g1Pts = Cases[g1, Line[pts_] :> pts, Infinity];


g2 = ListLinePlot[g1Pts,
  Frame -> True,
  FrameLabel -> {"x", "y"},
  ImageSize -> 2.6*72]


You can directly access the associated Part of g1; however, the specific
Part (position of Line) varies between plot types; whereas, locating the
Line with Cases works the same.


g1Pts ==
 List @@ g1[[1, 1, 3, 2]] ==
 Cases[g2, Line[pts_] :> pts, Infinity] ==
 List @@ g2[[1, 2, 1, 3, 3]]


True
