Answer 2

B. As coupon use increases, the amount of savings increases.

Explanation:

We have been given a scatter plot and we are asked to choose the correct statement from our given choices.

We can see from our scatter plot that if we will draw a line of best fit, we can see that all the data points will be approximately equidistant from that line except some outliers.

We can also see that our given data trend has a positive relation as number of coupons are increasing, the amount of savings are also increasing.

Since the amount of savings increases with the increase in use of coupons, therefore, option B is the correct choice.
