It is a bus, but it's a pretty quick and direct bus. It only haa five stops: three of them at LGA (Terminals B, D, C, in that order) followed by Jackson Heights /Roosevelt Avenue (connection to the E/F/M/R/7 subways) follows by Woodside (connection to LIRR). SBS stands are Select Bus Service meaning that you dip your Metrocard at a machine at the bus stop in advance, so everyone can then board quickly through any door without stopping to pay the driver, thus expediting boarding.
Q70 to the subway is absolutely my preferred method of travel from LGA to my apartment on the west side of Manhattan. Taxis often don't save much, if any, time getting to the west side and they cost astronomically more.
