XY plot is what you're after, as others have said.

If you can't use 'date' as an axis, there should be a function called
DATEDIF which will return the difference between two dates as a
scalar number in the units you specify. Creating a column using this
function (e.g. =DATEDIF($A$2, <current cell reference>, "yd") ) and
plotting that against balance as an XY plot should work.
