Looking at the graph, we can see that the x-axis has a lot of unused values, it goes until 50 but the graph only goes until around 25, so the horizontal axis scale is not appropriate.

Also, the x-axis does not have a label, so The axis labelling is not complete.

Last, this is a good graph to represent the temperature over the time, so the graph is designed appropriately.
