Macbeth is seeing the ghost of Banquo and this is causing him to act crazily, spoiling the party. Lady M tries to get him to settle down. But things get worse. Macbeth starts to say things which might give away the fact that he had Banquo murdered. Lady M then decides that she has to get rid of the guests.
Lady Macbeth tells the guests that this is just a strange habit Macbeth has. "Think of this, good peers, But as a thing of custom. 'Tis no other; Only it spoils the pleasure of the time."

In Act 2 Scene 1, Macbeth is onstage and Lady Macbeth is not. I think Macbeth in Act 1 Scene 5 is heading back to his castle called "Inverness" to talk to his wife (Lady Macbeth) about what happened with the witches and to come back from the war that just happened.

That depends on who you mean by the guest, and when. In Act 3, Scene 1, Macbeth calls Banquo "our chief guest." Macbeth is the one who dismisses Banquo after that conversation, saying "Hie you to horse. Adieu, / Till your return at night." If you mean the guests at the dinner party in Act 3, Scene 4 (after Banquo has been murdered and is appearing at the dinner as a ghost), Lady Macbeth dismisses them by saying "At once, good night. / Stand not upon the order of your going, / But go at once."
