Older bungalos had load bearing walls down the center of the basement, but your house is new enough that it would only use teleposts. Generally the teleposts will support a beam, usually laminated 2x10s or such, and the beam supports the floor joists which run perpendicular to the beam. There may be a wall framed in under the beam, but it will have no load bearing capacity.
