Trigger.newMap: It is a map with key as ID of the record and value as the record itself. In case of accounts when we say trigger.newMap we are talking about a map of key-value pairs where the key is the account ID and the value is the account record itself.
Trigger.OldMap: A map of IDs to the old versions of the sObject records. Note that this map is only available in update and delete triggers. -
