Dear Ben,
Dear Daniel,
Dear Rui,
Dear Bert,

Here below my R code.
I really appreciate all your comments. My R code is perfectly working but there is still something I would like to improve. The X-axis is showing   2012.5 ;   2015.0   ;   2017.5   ;  2020.0
I would like to see on X-axis only the year (2012 ; 2015 ; 2017 ; 2020). How to do? 


#########
library(ggplot2)
 
df=data.frame(year= c(2012,2015,2018,2022), score=c(495,493, 495, 474))

ggplot(df, aes(x = year, y = score)) + geom_point() + geom_smooth(method = "lm", formula = y ~ x) +
 labs(title = "Standard linear regression for France", x = "Year", y = "PISA score in mathematics") + scale_y_continuous(limits=c(470,500),oob=scales::squish)

  Or use + scale_y_continuous(limits = c(470, 500), oob = scales::squish)
