Transforming a Curvlinear Scatterplot to make it linear: possible.

You see, I have a graph looking like this:

And I want to make it so it has a more linear shape...

Help?

Why would you want to do that? - this curve has no linear tendencies.

If you got to - then take ln of y values.

If that does not "squeeze" those enough - take ln again (using absolute values).

After you take sufficient "ln" all those points may collapse to x-axis - there linear at last!!!
