Two groups of numbers have a positive relationship, when we can identify a pattern where the two variables increase together, a negative relationship when the two variables decrease together and no relationship when we can't identify any pattern.

For the first graph we can identify that as the temperature grows, the number of chirps also grows, therefore they have a positive relationship.

For the second graph we can't clearly identify any relationship between the two variables, therefore it has no relationship.
