Question 712258
The linear correlation coefficient is a numerical value that ranges from -1.00 to +1.00.  Describe in a sentence or two the meaning of each of these correlation coefficients:
  a)  -.96


<font color="blue">A correlation coefficient of -0.96 means that you have a very strong negative correlation because the correlation coefficient is negative and it's very close to -1 (-1 means perfect negative correlation)</font>


  b)  +.10


<font color="blue">A correlation coefficient of +0.10 means that you have a weak positive correlation because the correlation coefficient is positive and it's closer to 0 than 1</font>
