Welcome to TeX.SX! Are you in fact using the biblatex package (i.e. \usepackage[...]{biblatex}), your mention of unsrt and plain would indicate that you're not using it. Or is it an option to switch to using biblatex? — Torbjørn T., Mar 08 '16 at 12:01
You have the sorting=ynt (year-name-title) option of biblatex. — Bernard, Mar 08 '16 at 12:03
\bibliographystyle{sorting=ynt} I have to it like this ? Or do i need to include this package? — 6T18, Mar 08 '16 at 12:05
Should all entries in the bib file, or just a subset of the available entries, be shown in the bibliography? — Mico, Mar 08 '16 at 12:10
Texmaker is an editor (the program you write the code in), biblatex is a package for handling bibliographies (like times in \usepackage{times} is a package that changes the font). For some info on how to use biblatex, see e.g. biblatex in a nutshell (for beginners) and What to do to switch to biblatex?. (This is just for information, I'm not saying that you must do it.) — Torbjørn T., Mar 08 '16 at 12:39

You've indicated that all entries in the bib file are already sorted chronologically. If, moreover, all entries are to be shown in the formatted bibliography, you may achieve your objective by using the unsrt bibliography style and issuing the instruction

\nocite{*}

immediately after \begin{document}. Of course, use \cite instructions throughout the body of the document to generate the desired citation call-outs.

After changing the argument of \bibliographystyle, be sure to rerun LaTeX, BibTeX, and LaTeX twice more to fully propagate all changes.

Do you still have \cite statements? – Mico Mar 08 '16 at 12:40
