Out of square

Hi,

What would you call this line? It is neither horizontal nor vertical so perhaps it could be called 'out of square'?

It's a stupid question but I really don't know. If I had a straigh line (in Microsoft Excel) and I would like it to look like the one in the picture below, would I say something like:


"I put the line out of square." I am not sure if I'm making myself clear. I hope you can help me with that.

I am pretty sure that it's wrong.

Thank you.

Ann225'out of square'?

This is strange and unfamiliar. You could also say that the line is diagonal or sloping.
