b. a specific value of the dependent variable for a given value of the independent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

In correlation analysis, one can measure the strength of the relationship between two or more variables.

The aim of this analysis is to understand that in case of any change in the independent variable there is also change in the dependent variable or not.

The most common correlation method used is Pearson correlation, which measures linear relationships between variables.
