Read each question carefully and follow the instructions. For scatter plot questions, analyze the relationship between the data points to determine the type of correlation.
1. What type of correlation is shown in a scatter plot where as one variable increases, the other variable also tends to increase?
Negative correlation
Positive correlation
No correlation
Perfect correlation
2. Which scatter plot shows no relationship between the two variables?
Data points generally go up and to the right.
Data points generally go down and to the right.
Data points are scattered randomly across the plot.
Data points form a straight line.
3. If a scatter plot shows a correlation, as one variable decreases, the other variable tends to increase.
