Based on your description of the graph titled "Basketball Card Values" with a curve plotted in quadrant 1, the relationship represented by this dataset is most likely nonlinear.
A nonlinear relationship indicates that as one variable changes, the other variable does not change at a constant rate, which would be implied by the presentation of a curve rather than a straight line.
