Line Graph
Line graphs are often used to plot changes in data over time, such as monthly temperature changes or daily changes in stock market prices. Line graphs have a vertical axis and a horizontal axis. If you are plotting changes in data over time, time is plotted along the horizontal or x-axis and your other data, such as rainfall amounts is plotted as individual points along the vertical or y-axis.
