Answer:
a) strong negative linear correlation.
b) Weak or no linear correlation.
c) strong positive linear correlation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation coefficient r measures the strength and direction (positive or negative) of two variables. The correlation coefficient r is always between -1 and 1. When the coefficient r is negative then the direction of the correlation is downhill (negative) and when it's positive then it's an uphill correlation (positive). Similarly, as the coefficient is closer to -1 or 1 the correlation is stronger, with zero being a non linear relationship.
Now back to the question:
a) Near -1: as we said before, this means an strong negative (-1) linear correlation.
b) Near 0: weak or no linear correlation (we cannot say if its positive or negative because we don't know it it's near zero from the right (positive numbers) or the left (negative numbers)
c) Near 1: strong positive (close to +1) linear correlation

The answer is on the bottom. Hope this helps.
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a bowl shaped parabola ( due to the positive coefficient of x^2)
the minimum value (vertex )
will occur at x value = - b/2a = - -4600/2(415) = 5.54 years
the minimum VALUE will be the quation with this value of x inserted
415 (5.54)^2 - 4600(5.54) + 200 000 = $ 187 253.01
The home will reach a minumum value of 187253.01 in 5.54 years
