What's a punchline in a paragraph? Is it the same as topic sentence, or is it a conclusion sentence?

Punch line is the final part of the joke which makes you understand the meaning of the joke and that it is a joke.
Example:
Many dot-com businesses were so uncommercial that looking back , it is funny that people believed they might be worth investing in. Amazon was not one of those.
The punchline in this joke is "Amazon was NOT one of those."

How do you mean? Is this in a specifically comedic writing style? Or did a teacher pose the question, "what's the punchline?" or something like that?03/28/19
