Answer:

The type of association that is shown by the scatter plot is:

Non-linear, strong

Explanation:

A scatter plot is said to be have a linear relationship if the points lie along a straight line and if they do not then they have a non-linear relationship.

Now, the points follow a quadratic association and we may graph a quadratic equation such that the graph of the equation are closely related to the data points.

Hence, the relationship is strong.

Hence, the association is:

Non-linear, strong

For this case we have that the figure shown in the graph is non-linear. In addition, it is observed that if the given points are modeled, the figure of a parabola can be obtained, so we can say that the trend is strong.

Thus, a non-linear function with a strong tendency is shown.
