Last steps

Compute the average

2015	2016	2017	2018	2019	Sum	Average
-144	-98	-140	-130	-135	-647.0	-129.4

Compute the Upper Control Limit

Simply compute the standard deviation and multiply by 3 and add to the average: -75.4

Compute the Lower Control Limit

Simply compute the standard deviation and multiply by 3 and subtract from the average: -183.4

For the lines, you have the data necessary to plot the chart.
