Examining the graph, we can see that there can't be a proportional relationship between time and the height of the snow.

Proportional relationships, graphically behave as a linear function with no linear coefficient like this:

What we see in the graph, is a period of stability over time. So we can not tell this a proportional relationship.

If it was, as time goes by so the height of the snow would grow. For example:

t h

1 2

2 4

3 6

4 8
