The relationship between temperature and kinetic energy in a phase of matter is directly proportional. As temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles in that phase also increases. Therefore, the graph representing this relationship would be represented as a diagonal line, indicating a positive linear relationship.

The correct response is: a diagonal line.
