By analyzing the graph, we can see that the line represents the relationship between temperature and time.

The red part represents the temperature increasing, note that since it is not a straight line, this means that the temperature is increasing at varying rates in this yellow part. Then it reaches its maximum at the red part. And in the green part of the line, the temperature decreases.

Thus, the statement that is true about the graph is C.
