Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

A has a positive correlation

B is a quadratic function and moves negatively at one point and then moves positively... that trips thing up a little but just know it ain't B

C is moving negatively, negative numbers are all less than 1.

D is just about everywhere and isn't positive or negative... I think... either way its not C

I believe it is A. The reason is C has a strong negative correlation, indicating that the correlation coefficient would be negative.
