If SuperflyTNT doesn't specify what airplane, the only good answer is, fbw is a flight control system where there is no mechanical linkage between the control wheel or stick or whatever and the surfaces, but electrical signals.

The only fbw systems I know in civil aviation are those of airbus and B777. I don't know what other airliners have fbw
