Question

Which of the following is a description of the data with a correlation coefficient of -0.2?

Answer 1

Answer: Low negative correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

High correlation: The value of correlation coefficient lies between -1 to -0.5 or 0.5 to 1.

Medium correlation : The value of correlation coefficient lies between -0.5 to -0.3 or 0.3 to 0.5.

Low correlation : The value of correlation coefficient lies between -0.3 to -0.1 or 0.1 to 3.

The given correlation coefficient :$r =-0.2$

Clearly it is negative having minus sign.

Also it lies between -0.3 to -0.1

Hence,  the data with a correlation coefficient of -0.2 has a low negative correlation.

Answer 2

low negative correlation
