For the reaction

Formation of
is exothermic.
→ Lower temperature favors forward reaction.
→ At lower T, increasing pressure greatly increases % yield (because fewer moles are formed on RHS:
).
Interpretation of the graph
(You mentioned "adjacent figure" but didn't upload it. However, such graphs always show:)
The lowest curve corresponds to highest temperature (least sensitivity to pressure and lowest yield).
The highest curve corresponds to lowest temperature.
Thus, the ordering is:
