Supernova Light Curve

From http://lcogt.net/en/education/activity/plotting-supernova-light-curves

At time 1, what was the magnitude of the supernova?

At what time is the peak of the supernova.

Magnitude is inversely related to brightness (for example magnitude 15 is brighter than magnitude 18). What is the maximum brightness of this supernova?
