Default Forecasting

I also forgot to mention that I have about three fiscal years worth of
historical data to assist with my forecasts.

I'm attempting to forecast the amount of money spent on the purchase of
company cars for the remaining of the fiscal year. (Column 1: Costs of cars
and Column 2: Volume of cars) I've done a simple regression but the Adjusted
Square value was 80%. I dont think this would be the best way to forecast. I
created an XY scatter chart to view the relationship and it is a direct
relationship. I'm not sure which formula to use to obtain a very accurate
forecast. Any help is appreciated.
