My monitor is broken. I can only see scratchy lines on the monitor and a mouse behind them. The PC still works. If I connect a new monitor via VGA cable and PC VGA slot then press the dual screen key, will I be able to use the laptop like before it broke just with the other monitor?

If it is only the monitor that is broken then yes. If the problem persists with a new monitor, then you probably have a busted video card.
