The graph likely shows a trend where the more distant galaxies appear redder, which is consistent with the redshift phenomenon observed in distant galaxies due to the expansion of the universe. The mention of exceptions acknowledges that not all galaxies will perfectly follow this trend due to various factors such as intrinsic properties of the galaxies or observational anomalies.
