Graph Data Order

I have a table containing, Year, and WeekNumber in two columns the data, WeeklyPercentage, and  a sorting column Sort.

 

Annotation 2018-11-14 155212.jpg

 

I want to display the data on a graph with year and week number along x axis, WeeklyPercentage on the y axis and EscatlationLevel as the legend.

 

The graph always displays with the sorted by the WeeklyPercentage descending (sorted by y axis rather than x axis). I want to display with the x axis sorted

 

I have added the Sort column, but if I try and sort the WeeklyPercentage columns (contains duplicates) by this Sort column (doesn't contain duplicates) I get the following error.

How do I display with the X axis is sorted by Year and then WeekNo?
