Scatter Plot (Linear) - Correlation Direction and Strength to Graph (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on understanding and identifying different types of correlations in scatter plots. The problems involve recognizing weak, medium, strong, positive, negative, and no correlations in provided graphs. Each question presents a description of a specific type of correlation, and students must select the appropriate graph that best illustrates that correlation. This is a fundamental aspect of statistical analysis, emphasizing visual data interpretation skills.
