Post your code as text really helps. 

Your order of statements in the code:

1. Create a file reference to your Excel file - note this does not import file, just creates a pointer to the file
2. INFILE statement - not in data step, does nothing
3. INPUT statement - not in data step, does nothing
4. PRINT data - no data read in
5. Plot data - but no data has been read in
6. Import Excel file and save it as IMPORT1
7. Display contents of Import1 data set
8. Opens Import1 table to view it.

FYI - adding comments to your code as to what you think each line does (as above helps you avoid these errors.

Excel files are imported using PROC IMPORT. 

To resolve:

Remove steps 2/3

Move steps 6/7/8 to after step 1. 

In the future please post your code as text not images.

And whatever tutorial you're using is old, I'd highly recommend finding a newer one. GPLOT is not recommended these days. SAS offers free introductory training classes on it's official training page.

Delete lines 10 & 11
Move lines 12-15 after line 26

This should get your program to run & produce a listing of data & a scatterplot of minutes vs num_mach
