Plotting an image over a figure

I'm trying to create a Ground track for a satellite

I'm facing two issues:

(1) My ground track makes a coonection at the end of the graph to the beginning to continue its plot line of the orbit. I would like to remove this line seen in the figure attached.

(2) I'm trying to insert a figure in the background to cover the plot created by c with a more high-quality image. Unfortunately, every attempt I've made has failed. Does anyone a way around this?

figure
xlim([-180 180]) % Set X limits
ylim([-90 90])   % Set Y limits
c = geoshow('landareas.shp', 'FaceColor', [0.7 1.0 0.5]); % Constructs a ground track
axis tight

hold on
plot(longitude,latitude,'r')
hold off
xticks([-180 -120 -60 0 60 120 180])
yticks([-90 -60 -30 0 30 60 90])
title('Satellite Ground Track')
xlabel('latitude (\circ)')
ylabel('Longitude (\circ)')
