I'm trying to make a simple plot with ggplot, but it does not: 

ggplot(data = df, aes(x = Mês, y = SpreadMensal)) + geom_line() 

class(df)
[1] "data.frame"

class(df$Mês)
[1] "factor"

One suggestion I saw was to turn the Month column into date: 

     df$Mês<-as.Date(df$Mês, format="%m%Y")

class(df$Mês)
[1] "Date"

But this command gives me this: 

 [1] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
 [32] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
 [63] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
 [94] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

My data.frame looks like this: 

     Mês SpreadMensal
1   <NA>  -3.04045769
2   <NA>  -3.39026284
3   <NA>  -2.52839603
4   <NA>  -1.52792341
5   <NA>  -0.08979180
6   <NA>   1.02865488
7   <NA>   0.54515613
8   <NA>   0.13076121
9   <NA>   0.07423530
10  <NA>  -0.10478629
11  <NA>  -0.04161989
...

When you try to convert the expression "jan2006" to a date, you are missing the day of the month - without this R there is no way to know what date you want. You can, while doing the conversion, add the day ( paste0("01", mes) ) at the beginning of the value you have, and with that the conversion works, as the code below shows. 

#mes <- c("jan2006", "fev2006", "mar2006", "abr2006",
#         "mai2006", "jun2006", "jul2006", "ago2006",
#         "set2006", "out2006", "nov2006", "dez2006",
#         "jan2007", "fev2007", "mar2007")
mes <- c("jan2006", "feb2006", "mar2006", "apr2006",
         "may2006", "jun2006", "jul2006", "aug2006",
         "sep2006", "oct2006", "nov2006", "dec2006",
         "jan2007", "feb2007", "mar2007")
spread <- c(-3.04045769, -3.39026284, -2.52839603, -1.52792341,
            -0.08979180, 1.02865488, 0.54515613, 0.13076121,
            0.07423530, -0.10478629, -0.04161989, -0.40504212,
           -0.51056142, -0.69200513, -0.73608848)
df <- data.frame(mes, spread)
df$dia <- as.Date(paste0("01", df$mes), "%d%b%Y")
ggplot(data = df, aes(x = dia, y = spread)) + geom_line()

Note that the rollover will depend on the locale where the R session is running. On my machine (which is in English), I had to change the names of the months accordingly. You can resolve this by using Sys.setlocale to force the language you want to use.

Note that it is not necessary to convert the variable to month.

To facilitate testing with different chart types, let's save the ggplot structure on the g object: 

library(ggplot2)
g <- ggplot(df_teste, aes(x = Mês, y = SpreadMensal))

If you plot g , the graph should appear in the rstudio viewer without the rows.

However, geom_line needs to know which points to connect, so it is necessary to set group = 1 within aes() ggplot() or within aes() geom_point . It may be best to use aes() of geom_line to be able to continue using the g object without changing the chart base. 

g + geom_line(group = 1)

g + geom_line(group = 1) + geom_point()

The explanation can be found in Cookbook for R
