The straps mostly hold the yoke against the CRT tho they probably do play some role in holding the tube, the clamp around the front of the tube and the braces to the focus assembly do most of the holding.
When I replaced the CRT in mine I simply pushed sideways on one of the straps and it tore right off, they are really rotten after 60 years. It'll be a pain to replace them since they are riveted to the metal brackets.
