B) What conclusion does the graph suggest about the changes in tempearature?
The graph suggests that the temperature increased significantly between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m.

C) How should the graph be redrawn to make the data clearer?
The graph should be redrawn with a consistent scale on the y-axis from 0 C to 32 C without a break.
