a
Plot all data together on a dot plot to assess if there is any visible correlation between the data sets.
b

c
Pick two points on the dot plot and find a line of best fit.
d
Find the correlation coefficient to see how well the line of best fit actually fits the data.

b. Observe several cases of people ordering food of varying spice-levels and number of soft drinks ordered.

Explanation:

If you wanted to find out if the spiciness of foods is positively correlated with the number of soft drinks ordered the first thing you would do would be to gather data before you made your dot plot, made the line of best fit, and find out if the line of best fit works!
