Have you tried using the jaws cursor to click it on click on the point.
Thanks

The only way I know to do it is to right click with the mouse on a data point on the graph, a dialog box opens and you can do lots of things, including R squared values and such.  
With a screen reader, I have no idea.  That is what I am trying to figure out.  
It is unfortunate, right now, it seems that a sighted person is needed just to click on the graph within the worksheet so that a screen reader can work within it.  That's a little ridiculous. 
There must be some way around this.
