Question 497490: For a biology project, you measure the weight in grams and the tail length in millimeters (mm) of a group of mice. The equation of the least-squares line for predicting tail length l from weight w is
l = 22+w
By looking at this equation you can see that the correlation between weight and tail length is
less than zero
greater than zero
Can't tell without seeing the data.
