The correlation coefficient that best matches the the relationship displayed in each scatterplot are;

-0.96 → Scatterplot b

0.14 → Scatterplot a

-0.07 → Scatterplot d

0.80 → Scatterplot c

The description of the possible shape of the correlation coefficient used to select the respective scatterplots are as follows;

-0.96; The correlation coefficient, -0.96 indicates a strong negative linear association between the values in the ordered pair, such that the scatterplot is almost a straight line that increases from right to left on the coordinate plane, which corresponds to the scatterplot b

0.14; The value indicates a weak positive correlation, with a scatterplot similar to smoke rising from left (the origin) to the right, corresponding to scatterplot a

-0.07; The value indicates a very weak negative correlation, which can be described as random points marked by a few spots that decreases from left ti right

0.86; The value represents a strong positive correlation similar to a spray of mist or pressurised gas from left to right, which corresponds to the scatterplot in option c
