The scatterplot shows the average miles per gallon versus the age, in years, of a car.
A graph titled Fuel efficiency has age (years) on the x-axis, and miles per gallon on the y-axis. Points are at (1, 25), (2, 32), (3, 26), (4, 23), (5, 19), (6, 16), (7, 17), (8, 14), (9, 13), (10, 10).
If age was on the vertical axis and miles per gallon on the horizontal axis, how would the correlation change? Select all statements that would apply to the new correlation coefficient.
The sign would be the opposite.
The sign would remain the same.
It would have the same value.
It would become closer to 0.
It would become closer to 1.
