[Rotated Scatter Plot]

This scatter plot modifies the procedure defaults to:

specify a shape for the data points
classify the data by color
specify blue as the axis color
rotates the X-Y plane -15 degrees around the perpendicular Z axis.
specifies five major tick marks for the Y-axis
specifies two major tick marks for the X-axis
specifies five major tick marks for the Z-axis
specifies the zero as the minimum axis value for the Z-axis
specifies the one hundred as the maximum axis value for the Z-axis
