Default Default Colours in a Bar Graph

Whenever I select a Chart by default the colour of the 2 series are Blue &
Brown. Is there any way by which I can change these colours to Red & Green
by default so that whenever I select data to create a chart the first series
should appear in Red bars and the next series should appear as green bars.
Thanks for the reply in answering this query

Two possible solutions:
a) make a custom default chart:

or
b) use Tools|Options; open Colors tab and change colours for Chart Fill &
Chart Line
