There have been a couple near San Diego this weekend, is it part of the same fault line ?

Yes, they are on the San Andreas fault line, the new ones are right at the junction of 3 fault lines, the San Andreas goes from Baha California, up to where it connects to the Cascadia fault, the San Andreas fault is a strike-slip fault, the Cascadia is a suduction fault, two different types of faults, the Cascadia can produce a 9+ earthquake, the biggest ever on the San Andreas fault was around a 7.9 to an 8, big big difference.

A magnitude 9 is 33 times bigger then an 8.
