A time-series plot is the most appropriate choice for this type of data as it shows changes over time. A pie chart would not be suitable as it does not show changes over time and would only represent a snapshot in time. A stem-and-leaf display and side-by-side bar chart could potentially be used but are not as effective as a time-series plot for showing trends over a 10-year period.
