Best Answer

If you start the axes from any value other than zero make that very clear with large "lightning flashes" on the axes. Try not to, but sometimes it is unavoidable. If plotting the population of your town or city over time, it would make little sense to go back to year 0!

Show the values opposite grid marks along the axes.

Label the axes clearly with the variable plotted on it.
