You can use the following tooltip­'s label callback function, for showing different tooltip labels when hovered on different graphs :

tooltips: {
   callbacks: {
      label: function(t, d) {
         var xLabel = d.datasets[t.datasetIndex].label;
         var yLabel = t.yLabel;
         // if line chart
         if (t.datasetIndex === 0) return xLabel + ': ' + yLabel + ' unit(s)';
         // if bar chart
         else if (t.datasetIndex === 1) return xLabel + ': $' + yLabel.toFixed(2);
      }
   }
}

also, your first dataset should be for line chart, followed by bar , like so :

datasets: [{
   type: "line",
   label: 'Quantity Sold ',
   data: quantityData
}, {
   label: 'Total Profit ',
   data: amountData
}]
