In the image you've provided, two scatter plots are shown, and the task is to select the type of correlation represented by each graph.

1. **Top Graph**:
   - The points form an upward trend, indicating that as the value of \( X \) increases, the value of \( Y \) also increases. This suggests a **positive correlation**.
   - Since the points are not perfectly aligned but are closely packed, it indicates a **strong positive correlation** (not perfect).
   - Your selection of **Strong Positive Correlation** is correct.

2. **Bottom Graph**:
   - The points form a downward trend, indicating that as \( X \) increases, \( Y \) decreases. This suggests a **negative correlation**.
   - Similar to the first graph, the points are closely packed but not perfectly aligned, so it indicates a **strong negative correlation** (not perfect).
   - Your selection of **Strong Negative Correlation** is also correct.

Both answers you've selected are accurate!

Would you like more details or have any other questions?

Here are some related questions you could explore:
1. What is the difference between strong and perfect correlation?
2. How do you interpret correlation in real-world data analysis?
3. What statistical measure is used to quantify the strength of a correlation?
4. Can a strong correlation imply causation between two variables?
5. What are some examples of no correlation graphs?

**Tip:** In statistics, correlation does not imply causation, so be cautious when interpreting real-world data based on correlation.

Select the type of correlation represented by the graph.
