They can be looking for the shape of the relationship between the variables (whether it is linear, quadratic, reciprocal), and the domain over which that relationship extends. They may be looking for peaks or troughs in the line, they may be looking for harmonics, or periodicity. The answer really depends on what is being studied.
If u want to make trend analysis of an event and data scientists use the line graph.
The graph must be a straight line, and it must pass through the origin.
Line graphs are most commonly used.
A bar graph consists of columns of varying height to show data - looking like 'steps' across the page. A line graph uses a continuous line which changes direction with each piece of data.
Draw a graph of a given curve in the xoy plane. Now draw a vertical line so that it cuts the graph. If the vertical line cuts the graph in more than one ordinate then given graph is not a function. If it cuts the graph at a single ordinate such a graph is a function.(is called vertical line test)
A linear function would be represented by a straight line graph, so if it's not a straight line, it's nonlinear

To determine the speed of an object from a graph, you can calculate the average speed by finding the slope of the line connecting two points on the graph. The steeper the slope, the higher the speed. Alternatively, you can also find the instantaneous speed by looking at the slope of the tangent line at a specific point on the graph.
line graph x line graph = divided line graph
it helps because most people use line graph in their work so i would have to say that line graph help scientist's find out the measurement of something. It helps a lot to scientist because that's where their information is. It is most of the time on a line graph which is a good thing because it is pretty much the most simple one. :)
no because the broken line graph is a line graph that is broken da!
line graph or a scatter plot.
