Default How do I make a line graph WITHOUT first line starting at zero?

Do you want an XY chart instead?

I want a line chart that doesn't have the line starting at zero. This is an
XY chart.

Define "Starting at zero". Is the first X value at zero? The first Y value?
In fact, what does your data look like?

Did you know an XY chart and a line chart can both be formatted with lines
connecting the data points? The XY chart provides more flexibility regarding
the X axis.

For the chart as a whole, look at the sub-types against XY chart under Chart
Type. For an individual data series, Format Data Series.
