The most appropriate statement regarding the situation is:

**The points on the graph will have a common ratio of 1.32.**

This is because if the goldfish reproduce at a rate of 32% each month, the number of goldfish will increase by a factor of 1.32 each month (100% + 32% = 132%, or 1.32 as a multiplier). As a result, the number of goldfish will grow exponentially, which corresponds to a common ratio in graphing exponential growth.
