1 to have a series of successes: This is correct. "To be on a winning streak" is to enjoy a series of successes or experience a period where things happen in your favor. Example: First, you found that 100 dollar bill on the street, then you got promoted, then Natalie Portwoman asked you out on a date - you're on a real WINNING STREAK! In the conversation, Philip says "I'm on a winning streak" when referring to money he is making for the company, which suggests he has made a series of big sales.
1 to be born lucky: This is incorrect. If you are "born lucky" you are always lucky, not just for a short period of time as suggested by the term "winning streak".
1 to take lots of risks: This is incorrect. "To be on a winning streak" does not mean to take lots of risks.
2 to exceed the boundaries of acceptable behavior: This is correct. To "step over the line" is to go too far with something, to behave in a way that becomes inappropriate and potentially damaging. For example, "I usually like Steve's practical jokes, but he STEPPED OVER THE LINE when he put my cat in the microwave".
2 to obtain a new level of excellence or success: This is incorrect. "To step over the line" does not mean to obtain a new level of excellence or success.
2 to lose one's direction: This is incorrect. "To step over the line" does not mean to lose one's direction.
