First of all, if it's not linear, it's not a line. Like, that's what the word "linear" means, it's the adjective form of the word "line". What you're talking about is a curve, and if it's literally a random assortment of points - well, first off, it can't be if it's "a line" in the sense of being a curve, because I'm assuming you mean a continuous curve.

looks like trig but i’m not sure

#

is it not supposed to be linear?

what kind of a "line" do you want to connect them?

#

Because a polynomial of degree 5 would connect them, but it could be an overfit

why

#

idk if 6 points is enough for me to find a definitive pattern

#

i still hold that it looks linear or maybe trigonometric

Lagrange interpolation polynomial is faster than solving a system of 6 equations
