If the linear correlation between two variables is negative, what can be said about the slope of the regression line? Choose the correct answer below. A. Positive B. More information is needed C. Negative

C) Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Correlation:-

Correlation is a statistical measure that indicates the extent to which two or more variables fluctuate together

Positive correlation : -

Positive correlation occurs when the two variables of a function move in opposite directions. As the value of 'x' increases, the Value of 'y' increases. Like wise the value of 'y' decreases, the value of 'x' decreases.

Negative correlation:-

Negative correlation occurs when the two variables of a function move in opposite directions. As the value of 'x' increases, the Value of 'y' decreases. Like wise the value of 'y' decreases, the value of 'x' increases.

Final answer:-

If the linear correlation between two variables is negative then the slope of the regression line is also positive.
