The Bitcoin network operates according to a set of rules. These rules govern things like making sure balances don't get overspent, and other things like how many Bitcoins can be created. Every time a new transaction comes in, the nodes check if the transaction follows the rules, and then pass it on to the other nodes they're connected to.
