For which of the following correlations would the data points be clustered most closely around a straight line? r = 0.10 r = 0.50 r = -0.80 There is no relationship between the correlation and how close the data points are to the line.

Step 1
The value of r ranges from -1 to 1, where -1 indicates a perfect negative linear relationship, 1 indicates a perfect positive linear relationship, and 0 indicates no linear relationship. In this question, we are given three correlation coefficients: 0.10, 0.50, Show more…

For which of the following Pearson correlations would the data points be clustered most closely around a straight line? r = -0.10 r = +0.40 r = -0.70 There is no relationship between the correlation and how close the points are to a straight line
For which of the following correlations would the data points be most widely scattered around the regression line? r=0.10 r=0.50 r=0.80 r=0.99
