Aha, you're right. $80 definitely works, that's what I always used, but to be super precise, it's 0 = unallocated, non-zero = allocated. Which means, from BASIC, it's probably best to do POKE117,1 to save 2 bytes

@Csabo: are you sure of this? Browsing the code I've only found:
DEC $75
and LDA $75: BEQ xxxx
Thank you

Just a very minor addition to what SVS said, only the topmost bit of the value on $75 is actually checked (so $80 and above = allocated, $7F and below = not allocated).
Adding POKE117,128 to your first example will work.

The BASIC has its way to easy manage the graphic. The first time you use GRAPHIC x,y the system always allocates the graphic area from $2000 to $3FFF and shift the possible BASIC lines beyond this limit (RAM cell at $75 memorizes the status: $FF allocated, $00 no).
After this operation, all the further executions of GRAPHIC x,y do not move data area nor Basic lines (Ram cell at $75 memorizes the status: $FF allocated, $00 no)
To restore the BASIC lines back to $1000 you have to use GRAPHIC CLR (then not GRAPHIC 0!)

 | Graphic 1 or 2
I would like to use
0 POKE 44,128:POKE128*256,0:NEW
Now if my program says GRAPHIC 1,1
It relocates basic again right where I was trying to keep it out of.
I could do:
0 Graphic 1,1
1 Poke 44,128:Poke128*256,0:New
and then load my program (without using Graphic 1 after that)
Any better ways? Or even any other ways?
Regards,
Robert
