so I just started using After Effects like last week and I thought it was fine because the layout that I'm seeing is the same as the layout of the AE of many youtubers but when I tried to use the graphs, i tried to move the yellow thing, it only move horizontally, i can't move it diagonally. please help me fix this.

You are using the speed graph so you can not move the handles diagonally. You must change the curve to Value graph. Check attached images (yellow rectangles).

After Effect's speed graphs don't give you a huge amount of control, I'm afraid.  When you say "yellow box", is possible you have the white square selected instead?  That's the time setting for the keyframe (I think) whereas the yellow square can move the keyframe in time and value.
