Check BNC connections at camera and at DVR, use test monitor to see if video is present at DVR end. May need to reboot DVR to re establish connection. :)

A trick I use to test RG-59 is place a resistor accross the shield and center pin on one connector, and meter it at the other end. You should get the proper resistance (makes double checking those twist-on BNCs a breeze).
Likely a bad install on the BNC, or the cable is damaged somewhere along the 150' run.
Also - Try what Rick suggested.
