TIP Don't use · dramatic/dramatically' too often.

You can also use:
significant/ significantly
noticeable/ noticeably
marked/ markedly
considerable/ considerably.

These words don't describe the slope of the graph. They just mean 'big enough to see'. For example:
Although sales increased overall, there was a marked decrease between 1965 and 1967.
There is expected to be a noticeable improvement in sales from 2020, after the new model is released.
The popularity of landline telephones decreased significantly over the period.
Staff attendance showed considerable variation, depending on the time of year.

NOTE: 'Significant' can mean 'big', but it can also have a more technical meaning. In statistics, 'a significant change' means 'a change that is not normal variation'.
