The correlation coefficient is a numerical vale that ranges from -1.00 to +1.00. Describe in a sentence or two the MEANING of each of these correlation coefficients, Please include example:
a) -.96
Means: strong negative linear correlation; as x increases, y decreases.
--------------------------
b) +.10
Means: weak positive linear correlation: as x increases, y increases
