| Scatter plot showing strong positive linear correlation |

| Discussion | Note in the plot above how a straight line comfortably fits through the data, hence a linear relationship. The scatter about the line is quite small, hence a strong linear relationship. The slope of the line is positive (small values of X yield small values of Y; large values of X yield large values of Y), hence a positive co-relation (that is, a positive correlation) between X and Y. | ||
