Answer:

  • A scatter plot is a chart type that is normally used to observe and visually display the relationship between variables. It is also known as a scattergram, scatter graph, or scatter chart.
  • The data points or dots, which appear on a scatter plot, represent the individual values of each of the data points and also allow pattern identification when looking at the data holistically.
  • The most common use of the scatter plot is to display the relationship between two variables and observe the nature of such a relationship. The relationships observed can either be positive or negative, non-linear or linear, and/or, strong or weak.
