They fit quite nicely to your eye sure, but look at the lack of data points you have for the higher gdp in those continents. This is just bad practice.

Just because your r squared is better does not make your prediction better. You should check with cross validation.
Adding more freedom to your trend lines makes it fit your current data better sure. But just “joining the dots” fits the best.

Fully agree. As is typical of data is beautiful, there’s a lot of bad data analytics practice here.
