Explanation

Adding a year slicer allows users to filter the visual by specific years, enabling them to observe how the relationship between Total Cost and Total Sales changes across different time periods. If the visual is a scatter chart showing Total Cost vs. Total Sales, the slicer provides interactive time-based filtering to reveal trends over time. A play axis (A) would animate through time automatically but is a different interaction model. An Average line (C) adds a reference line and doesn't show change over time. A DAX year-over-year measure (D) would add a new metric, not filter the existing relationship view.
