Which is the best estimate of the correlation coefficient for the variables in the scatter plot?

- 0.8

0.8

- 0.25

0.25

By using a scatter plot we can get the relationship of two variables or correlation.

There will be two types of correlation.

If the data of the plot show a positive slope of the estimated line then it will be a positive correlation.

Now a correlation value lie between 0 to 1 if it is very close to 0 like 0.1 , 0.2 then we can say the correlation is weak psitively correlated. and if it will be close to 1 like 0.8 or 0.9 then the correlation will be strong.

Similarly if slope of the estimated line will be negative then it will be a negative correlation.

From the above scatter plot notice that it has a negative slope and we can draw a fair estimate line on this scatter plot. So, there is strong negative correlation.

Hence the correct choice is -0.8.
