    1 Click on your line to select it
    2 Right-click and select Format data series
    3 Select Marker options, Built-in, Type - circle

    4 Still in Marker options, Built-in, select a Size to suit you. Size 10 is pretty big and is roughly what you have drawn.
    5 Then Marker fill, No fill will match your illustration's circles but you can experiment to suit your needs.

    Excel does not provide for freehand drawing on charts.

    You could take a screenshot of your chart then edit it in, for example, MSPaint to add your circles.

    Sorry, I was wrong.

    Excel also provides for additional drawing on charts.

    Click on Excel's Insert tab,
    click on Shapes,
    select a circle or whatever else you want,
    click on the chart wherever you want,
    drag the circle into position & right-click on it to format it however you want.
