Answer:

B

Explanation:

As students grow older, they will naturally grow taller because their bodies are developing and maturing. This means that as the values on the x axis increase, the values on the y axis will also increase.

The result of these type of correlation is that there will be a line increasing to the right. This is known as a positive trend.

Hope this helps!

The trend will be positive because as the students get older their heights tend to get taller.
