I think that you mean ... Auto switch to sreen based linetypes in model view.
You can find this preference under:
Menu .. Edit .. Application Preferences .. Graphics View .. Appearance .. Linetypes and Lineweights

Rather the opposite.

Just a follow up (in case anybody finds this thread looking for an answer to lineweight display)
It's not quite as simple as it appeared originally and I have followed up later on with more questions:

Not totally answered, but now I know a lot more about it than I ever did before e_surprised
