Thanks for the reply.  I seem to have asked my question the wrong way: I
want the curve which is the graph of the function, and I want the
horizontal line which is the x-axis, and the vertical line which is the
y-axis.  I do not want ticks along the axes and I do not want numbers
along the axes.

Also, I need to save the result into a png file (for instance), and save
does not have the axes=False option (not a big deal, see below).

Right now I am sidestepping the issue by doing

sage: G = plot(-x*(x-2)*(x-7), -1, 7.5, rgbcolor=(0,0,1))
sage: x = line([[-2,0],[8,0]], rgbcolor=(0,0,0))
sage: y = line([[0,-25],[0,35]], rgbcolor=(0,0,0))
sage: P = G+x+y
sage: P.axes(False)
sage: P.save('graph.png')

So I draw the graph, draw the two axes in as lines, put these together,
ask for the default axes to not be included, then save.  It's a bit of a
pain: to draw the axes in, I have to figure out what the ranges should
be, etc.

Is there a better way?

Best,
Alex
