More Information
A negative relationship indicates that as the percent of trees harvested increases, the density of squirrels decreases. The points suggest a linear pattern with a strong correlation, meaning the points closely follow a linear path.
Tips
A common mistake is misjudging the linearity or strength. Consider both the overall direction and the dispersion of points.
