How do you get the X axis on the bottom of a line graph when the graph
contains negative values? Mine keeps appearing in the middle at the 0 marker.
 
Open the chart, right click the Y axis and click on the Scale tab. Set the
value of "Category (X) axis Crosses at" to a negative number equal to the number
in "Minimum". You may want to play with the numbers to see the effect of
different settings.
 
Hi,

double click the axis with the negative number. Or select the axis and
Select Format| Selected Axis...

Go to the Scale tab... Tick the "Floor (XY Pane crosses at)... Then enter
your lower (negative value). That will force the axis to be displayed at the
bottom of your negative number.
