i'd cut along the solid line first. this is the cut that you make for the cutting that you will root. all of that swollen cambium will give you more rooting surface as dutchlady said. only cut along the dashed line once new branches have emerged and are growing nicely. that is to reduce die back. however, there is nothing that says you can just cut along the dashed line from the beginning. if that is the case, you might just make the dashed line the only cut that you make and root the top part.

hope i didn't confuse you. LOL
