Question 2

The mayor of one city has been conducting an anti-smoking campaign in high schools. Each year local government researchers estimate the number of teenagers in the city who smoke.
 
  The number of smokers has declined steadily in each of the past five years. The mayor's office constructs a bar graph showing the number of teenage smokers in each of the past five years. If the mayor wished to exaggerate the success of his anti-smoking campaign, would it be to his advantage to truncate the bar graph? Explain your thinking.
