Answer:

The answer would be D

Explanation:

Most of the points are grouped together and can be define by a line or equation so there is a correlation between the outside temperatures and the heating cost so right away we can eliminate option A

There is no such thing as a constant correlation so we can eliminate answer choice C

As the temperatures rise ( or as the x values rise) the cost of heating decreases ( or the y values decrease) This is an example of negative correlation correlation because as one value increase the other value decreases.

this is also notable from looking at the graph .
