After plotting the data from the table, with the number of times sick per year as a function of the number of apples eaten per week, I can conclude that there is no definite correlation between the two variables. This is because the data points do not have a good fit with any trend, meaning the R-squared value is low. Thus, the number of apples eaten per week has no significant effect on the number of times the people listed get sick per year.
