2. Fill in the blanks

a. If the data points form a relatively straight line on a scatter plot, then there is a __________________
relationship between the two variables.

b. If we are predicting a value outside the data range, it is an ________________, but if we are predicting a
value between the data range, it is an _________________

c. It is a ____________ correlation when the pattern falls down to the right. It is a _______________
correlation when there is an upward trend in the data points from left to right.

3. For each of the scatter plot below, identify the type and strength of each relation.
