PLZZZZZZZZ HELP!!!!!!!!

Jeremy thinks that he drinks more water when it is hotter outside. For 11 weeks he records the average temperature for the week and his average daily water intake (in ounces). He then constructs a scatterplot and finds the line of best fit. His line of fit has a small positive slope.

Which is most likely the scatterplot for this data set?
