Answer with explanation:

In a Line plot, we draw a number line, mark distinct variate on it.In front of each variate, we mark points to represent total frequency of each variate.

For, example :

A. When data changes over time, Suppose at time ,A,value of that thing was 3. at B,it was 5, at time C , it was 7,.......Mark , A, B and C,.. on number line and put three dots in front of A, 5 dots in front of B, 7 dots in front of C,....But Bar graph,or Histogram is best suited for this Model .

B.Suppose, Data set is not discrete

Data Frequency

1 3

2 4

3 6

4 8

5 4

6 12

..........................................

Make number line. Mark Data which are numbers, on the number line, and Represent frequency over each variate either by point or any other sign.

Most Appropriate for Line Plot.

C:

Categorical Heading Frequency

A 4

AB 5

ABC 8

A CD 12

Draw a Number line,Instead of marking numbers, mark heading at equal Distances and represent frequency through any Sign, above each Categorical Data.

Appropriate for Line Plot but bar graph most suited.

D:

You need frequency , along data .So, alone Data is not sufficient for , Line plot.

⇒≡Option B and Option C, are best suited for line Plot.

Going with→ Option B

⇒Data that is spread out over a large range of numbers frequency.
