the vertical Axis
With a line graph you use lines. You put numbers at the bottom of the graph and numbers on the side. In other words the bottom numbers are on the x axis and the numbers on the side are on the y axis. Then when you have the dots on the graph you connect them and then it makes a line.
The straight horizontal line on a graph is referred to as the x-axis. The vertical line on a graph is the y-axis.

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.
