I'm using the following bit of code to plot two arrays of the same length -

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from scipy import stats
from scipy.stats import linregress

G_mag_values = [11.436, 11.341, 11.822, 11.646, 11.924, 12.057, 11.884, 11.805, 12.347, 12.662, 12.362, 12.555, 12.794, 12.819, 12.945, 12.733, 12.789, 12.878, 12.963, 13.094, 13.031, 12.962, 13.018, 12.906, 13.016, 13.088, 13.04, 13.035, 13.094, 13.032, 13.216, 13.062, 13.083, 13.126, 13.101, 13.089, 13.073, 13.182, 13.116, 13.145, 13.235, 13.161, 13.154, 13.383, 13.315, 13.429, 13.461, 13.287, 13.494, 13.459, 13.478, 13.534, 13.536, 13.536, 13.483, 13.544, 13.564, 13.544, 13.608, 13.655, 13.665, 13.668, 13.697, 13.649, 13.742, 13.756, 13.671, 13.701, 13.788, 13.723, 13.697, 13.713, 13.708, 13.765, 13.847, 13.992, 13.706, 13.79, 13.783, 13.844, 13.945, 13.928, 13.936, 13.956, 13.898, 14.059, 13.945, 14.039, 13.999, 14.087, 14.05, 14.083, 14.136, 14.124, 14.189, 14.149, 14.182, 14.281, 14.177, 14.297, 14.268, 14.454, 14.295]

fig, ax = plt.subplots()


plt.scatter(G_mag_values,G_cal_values)

ax.minorticks_on()
ax.grid(which='major', linestyle='-', linewidth='0.5')
ax.grid(which='minor', linestyle='-', linewidth='0.5')
fig.set_size_inches(10,7)
best_fit_Y_G = []
slope_G, intercept_G, r_value_G, p_value_G, std_err_G = stats.linregress(G_mag_values,G_cal_values)
for value_G in G_mag_values:
    best_fit_Y_G.append(intercept_G + slope_G*value_G)
plt.plot(G_mag_values, best_fit_Y_G, 'r', label = 'Best fit')
plt.title('M67 Calibration graph for G filter')
plt.xlabel('Real magnitude')
plt.ylabel('Measured magnitude')
plt.show()


curve_G = np.polyfit(G_mag_values,G_cal_values,1)
print('G filter polyfit line: slope {}; intercept = {}'.format(curve_G[0],curve_G[1]))
print('G filter linregress: slope {}; intercept = {}'.format(slope_G,intercept_G))

When I run this, it prints the values for slope and intercept from the best_fit_Y_G and curve_G, but it doesnt display the plot at all. Where am I going wrong?

I copy/pasted and run your code.

curve_G = np.polyfit(G_mag_values,G_cal_values,1)

That line gives me error. Then I imported numpy as np and problem solved.

output figure
