basically, you're connecting the midpoint at the top of each bar together.

based on that, your selection appears to be selection B as shown below.

$$$

the reason is that you are connecting the midpoint of each bar.

the midpoint of each range and the value at that midpoint is shown in the following table:



date range        midpoint (x-value)        value (y-value)


10 to 14                  12                     2
15 to 19                  17                     5
20 to 24                  22                     13
25 to 29                  27                     17
30 to 34                  32                     6




this agrees with the (x,y) coordinates shown on the graph.
