As we can see from the graph, we can see that we could have two populations of lightbulbs in the graph. If we draw or try to approximate a line to these two different populations of lightbulbs, we end up with the next graph:

Then, we can conclude that, for most cases, as the energy increases, the light output increases too. Of course, there are some exceptions like the point (18, 800), but the tendency is in this way.

Therefore, the statement that best describes the association between the energy and light output is statement F: As the energy increases, the light output increases.
