That depends on what software you are using to generate the plot. I see 
you have this line of code:

> plt.plot(hs1,hs2,'.')

but you haven't told us what plt is, where it comes from, or anything 
needed for us to answer your question.

So, start by telling us what plt is, and we may be able to tell you 
whether or not it supports lines of best fit.
