Question

Which correlation coefficient indicates the stronger linear relationship between random variables for a fixed sample size?

Answer 1

Answer:

D) r=-0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that when $|r|$ is closest to 1, the stronger the correlation between the variables. In this case, while $|0.8|=0.8$, $|-0.9|=0.9$ is actually larger and shows a stronger negative correlation between random variables. Therefore, D is correct.
