Answer:

Diagram B

Explanation:

Visually inspecting the three scatterplots, the line of best fit does not accurately fit the points on the second graph. Hence, line of best fit should not have been drawn for the second graph as the relationship isn't linear.

The line of best fit minimizes the sum of the square of the mean distance between each point. Hence, the distance between the line and the best fit line should be as small as possible.

However, the second graph isn't linear, hence , a linear line cannot model the relationship.
