What is line chart in Google Sheets?
Line Chart is chart or visual vocabulary in Google Sheets: chart types, axes, legends, sparklines, and publish options. Good charts make trends obvious without hiding the source range.
When to use it
Use chart terms when building dashboards, choosing chart types, or embedding visuals elsewhere.
When to skip it
Skip fancy chart types when a simple bar or line chart already answers the question.

charts in Google Sheets
Charts in Google Sheets turn selected ranges into line, bar, pie, and combo visuals that update when source data changes. You insert from the Insert menu or chart editor, tie ranges to pivot tables or QUERY outputs, then publish or embed charts in Slides, Sites, and dashboards.

SPARKLINE draws a miniature chart inside one cell from a row or column of numbers. Choose line, column, bar, or winloss types and pass an options object for color, axis, and markers. Dashboard tables use sparklines to show trend without full charts.
