  • 5.
A) C
B) B
C) D
D) A
  • 6. Strong positive and negative correlations have data points _____ to the line of best fit.
A) fairly close
B) far away
C) from right to left
D) very close
  • 7. Which is true about this graph?
A) There is no correlation present in this scatterplot.
B) Line 2 is the better line of best fit because it passes directly through 2 of the points on the graph.
C) Line 1 is the better line of best fit because there are about as many points above and below the line.
D) Neither line is appropriate, because there is a negative correlation present in the scatterplot.
  • 8. Which is true about this graph?
A) A line with a positive slope should be used to model the scatterplot data.
B) A line with a negative slope should be used to model the scatterplot data.
