No correlation

Here, we want to select the option that best describes the correlation type between the two axes

What we can see here is a scatter plot without no definite relationship between the two sets

If correlation was positive, as x-increases , y should increase

If correlation was negative, as x-increases, y should decrease or vice-versa

But in this case, we can see no definite pattern but values on both axes just taking random values

Thus, our answrer is that there is no correlation between the two
