It's a little unclear what you want exactly. You can try changing one or both of the axes to logarithmic in order to make the graph look like a line. But surely, you don't want to modify the data, or ... ?

So just go to the axis range settings and change the range to logarithmic. Maybe it will result in a more "linear" graph, maybe not. But this is, I think, everything you can do at this stage. What's the difficulty you are facing?

@Matti P . Can you can make the graph perfectly linear? I would like to do this to verify the relationship on the photo above.
