A graph is made to better interprete the data. Typically, the x-axis is used to plot the independent variable. If you are plotting a time series, then the time variable (hours, days, years) is shown on the x-axis. Chosing which variables to plot can be difficult. Let's say I want to study employees salary. I would by convention plot on the X-axis, a factor which I think effects salary, say years of employment or education level. What variables should not be plotted? If my data set is very small, or not reliable, then the graph will add little value.

How does a graph slowing speed differ from a graph showing acceleration?
Yes. One shows speed and the other shows acceleration. The variables are usually plotted against time but that need not be the case. They could be plotted against displacement, for example.
Which type of graph is data plotted by a point on the graph?
line graph
On which type of graph is data plotted by a point on the graph?
line graph :))))))))))))))
What are the advantages and disadvantages of representing a relationship between variables in a table?
The advantage is being given a straight answer, but in a graph it doesn't give you a straight answer, because there is a possibility of data being in between the plotted points.
Could lead to a misleading graph?
Incorrectly plotted points.
