Well if you want to do it that way, nobody can stop you, but people
in the habit of processing numbers usually put the time on the X-axis
like in time spend learning or exercising and put the other value
on the Y-axis. 

That is because people prefer a curve going up and down while moving
to the right instead of going left and right while moving up.
