The data represented in the scatterplot is Bivariate data, as it involves two variables: temperature in degrees Celsius (x-axis) and feet above/below sea level (y-axis).

Depending on the specific pattern observed in the scatterplot, the data could also exhibit characteristics like being linear or non-linear, increasing or decreasing, but the most direct answer concerning the type of data is that it is bivariate.
