I think it’s just a trendline, not a line of best fit.

That line of best fit doesn’t even match the data. How can it start above the data and then finish above the data but still be line of best fit. Not that that’s the only problem with this graph of course.

Sorry, it’s actually a “best fits our narrative” line. I can see how you might have been confused.
