What is the difference between a line graph and a scatter diagram?
The terminology "scatter diagram" is used in Microsoft Excel and it causes some confusion. The difference is in the x-axis. If my x data is 1900, 1901 2000 and my y data is 100, 300, 3000, then a line plot (in Excel) would show on the x-axis three regularly spaced marks corresponding to 1900, 1901 and 2000. However, on a scatter diagram, intervals are always numerically equal, so 1900 and 1901 are very close together. Scatter diagram, as Microsoft defines them, can show line only, lines and points or just points. It is the preferred plot for data in technical/ scientific work. Where the data is sparse and/or alternative interpretation possible, I would suggest showing both points and lines. Line graphs (again, as Microsoft defines it) can distort relationships. See related link below for some good examples.
