    From looking at the scatter plot of the two variables you get a sense that there are other important predictors missing from this equation. There is non-linearity so you could use other methods instead of plain vanilla linear regression. 

     

    Investigate further the physics of the process. I know absolutely nothing and Wikipidea tells me pressure is another important variable.
