See tally-mark like graph and explanation.

Explanation:

x>0 to make ln x real.

The x-intercept ( y = 0 ) is 1.

At x= o, y takes the indeterminate form 0 X (-oo)

Yet, the limit is 0. since x approaches 0 at a faster rate than ln x

approaches 0, as x to 0_+.

When x in(0. 1], y < 0.

As x to oo, y to oo.
