The correlation illustrated by the scatterplot is option (B) No correlation.

The correlation value can be depicted visually from the graph of a scatterplot . Depending on the slope of the graph. the direction and strength of correlation can be inferred.

A steep upward slope indicates a strong positive correlation while a steep downward slope indicates a strong negative correlation.

From the graph shown, the slope of the graph is horizontal which indicates a slope of 0.

Hence, there is no correlation between the variables.
