Manipulate Chart Display from Matrix

I have a matrix that interacts with a line chart next to it.  When one of the columns is selected in the matrix, the line chart reacts appropriately:

However, if no columns are selected in the matrix, ALL lines are displayed in the chart:

When there is no column selected, I'd like to see the line chart represent the results of the "Total" column:

I am extremely new to PowerBI. In fact, this is my first project.  I am open to any and all suggestions on the best way to accomplish this objective.  


Thanks, in advance, for any help you can provide!

Read about FILTERS() and HASONEVALUE().  Then read about using measures as visual filters.

While I'd have liked something a bit more specific, it did point me in the right direction.  I'd have been searching forever without this help.  Thanks!!
