(06.01)The tables below show four sets of data:
Yakvenalex [24]
For it to be non-linear, the rate of change cannot be constant.  For the first table the rate is a constant 1 and the second table has a constant rate of -1.  The 3rd and 4th tables have no constant rate and thus are non-linear.

The 4th table is increasing while the 3rd table is decreasing.  

So the 3rd table, Set C, is the only non-linear negative association between x and y.
