Answer:

B. Positive correlation

Explanation:

Positive correlation is nothing but when the values of x increase, the corresponding y values are also increase.

When we look at the scatter plot, when x increase, the y also increase.

Therefore, it is a positive correlation.

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
