Situation A: correlation coefficient of 0.00; Situation B: correlation coefficient of 1.00. With respect to cause and effect statements, Situation A allows the statement "there is no cause and effect relationship" and Situation B allows the statement "there may be a cause and effect relationship"; none of the choices are correct.
