Bar graphs are used when graphing a qualitative independent variable, but a line graph is used when the independent variable is quantitative. Also when you are comparing quantity of objects(bar graph)
Line graphs are used to display data to show how one variable (the Responding variable) changes in response to another variable (the Manipulated variable).
A line graph is not a good way to represent the data as the number of CDs is a continuous variable, but the artists are a discrete, categoric variable. A line graph should be used when both variables are continuous. A bar chart or bar graph should be used when one variable is continuous and one is discrete.
Sometimes
It can be, but not necessarily. If I had the heights (continuous variable) of a class of students I might use a histogram. Conversely, if I had the number of cars (discrete variable) driving by every minute, I would use a line graph. It all depends on which kind of graph conveys the information to your audience in the best way.

The manipulated variable, also known as the independent variable, is typically plotted along the x-axis of a graph. This variable is controlled by the experimenter and is used to observe its effect on the responding variable, which is usually plotted on the y-axis.

Sometimes
It means the factor that changes as a result of changes to the manipulated, or independent, variable in an experiment; also called dependent variable.
The two variables plotted on a graph depend on the type of graph being used. In a typical line graph, the y-axis (vertical) represents the dependent variable, while the x-axis (horizontal) represents the independent variable.
A variable is a symbol or name used to represent a value that can be manipulated or changed during the course of a program.
A line graph is typically used to show the relationship between two variables and how one variable changes when the other variable is changed. The x-axis represents one variable and the y-axis represents the other variable. Lines connecting data points show how the variable being measured changes as the other variable changes.

the line graph is the temperature!
