Is there a way to go around this?

Thanks,

AutoScale makes things wrong.
The slope value is good.

You need to get 1$ = 1 Unit time

Imagine to do the works on a millimeter paper sheet...
Y start from zero and X axis one millimeter equals Y axis one
millimeter !

e.g

1$ = 1 minute = 1 mm on X and Y
