Gnuplot: line not recognised

I am trying to change the line style of my gnuplot graph (there is only one line, I have only a simple plot of y versus x) However, when I type: set style line 1 linecolor rgb '#0060ad' ... (or linewidth or whatever argument) (& replot) nothing happens... it seems that it doesn't recognise the plot as "line 1".. I also tried to change the line index to a different number or its name...

Could anybody please help what to put "set style ..." argument?

Thank you very much!

Gnuplot has linestyle and linetype:

set linetype 1 linecolor "yellow"
plot x

or 

set style line 1 linecolor "magenta"
plot x linestyle 1

Using set linetype is the recommended way, line style is deprecated.

Note, that resetting the line type must be done with reset session (gnuplot version 5), reset alone doesn't work.
