It depends on what you are graphing and the domain.

If you are tracking daily temperature in your town, for example, the only difference will be in the y-intercept: that is how high or low your graph is. If you must show the origin on the chart, though, the vertical scale will be much greater.

If graphing some aspect of thermodynamics, the Kelvin graph should be simpler because it is likely to go through the origin.

Kelvins are based on absolute zero, which means they have no negative values. This makes it easier to graph because the scale starts at zero and increases only in positive values, without any negative numbers. In contrast, Celsius has negative values which can complicate graphing and interpretation.
