Answer:

D: None of these are true

Step-by-step explanation:

If the points on the scatter plot seem to form a line that slants down from left to right, there is a negative relationship or negative correlation between the variables. If the points on the scatter plot seem to be scattered randomly, there is no relationship or no correlation between the variables
