Anyway to avoid these numbers on the line graph from overlapping?

It would probably be best if you turned off the value labels and let the user determine the values from the location of the data points. Value labels can make charts look too busy and cluttered. The point of a graph is usually to show trends and directions and relative differences and relationships rather than give exact numbers.
But, to your question, you can set one of the series to display its values above and the other to display its values below. That might fix the problem you are seeing near the axis but it might make other points overlap. There are also above-right, below-left, etc.. You would think "auto-fit" would solve this problem but it seems to only care about overlap from the point on the left and right.

Expand the Y axis scale to put more vertical space between values in the three series. At the current scale, it appears a difference of $10 or less between two of the three charted values. Doubling the height of the vertical axis, without changing the maximum or minimum values on that axis would separate the overlapping values shown in the example.
Or make the value labels smaller by reducing the height (point size) of the characters used for those labels.
