Hi, I have 2 vectors and I would like to know the R^2 ie the regression of the line. I would like a line of best fit to show on the plot and the two vectors one on y and one on x axis thanks

Try this demo:
% Create sample data and plot it.
x = 1:10;
y = 3*x - 20 + 4*rand(1, length(x)); % Some equation
plot(x, y, 'r*', 'MarkerSize', 15);
grid on;
% Get the fit
coeffs = polyfit(x, y, 1);
% Get the x values for the fit at higher resolution.
xFit = linspace(x(1), x(end), 300);
% Get the estimated y values
yFit = polyval(coeffs, xFit);
% Plot them as a line.
hold on;
plot(xFit, yFit, 'b-', 'LineWidth', 3);

My x and y are vectors. What do you have? Give code to generate the kind of data you have.
