1. It's not the "mean of all values", it's the OLS coefficients with
    associated confidence bounds.
2. Be more polite. Not everyone will share your judgement that this
    information is useless.
3. Read the docs: Argument lcol can be used to modify the properties of
    the OLS lines, e.g. plot(sfm, lcol = "transparent")
