Answer:

this would represent a strong negative

Explanation:

on a correlation line you have strong negatives,weak negatives,none,weak positives, and strong positives.Since the coefficient is a hand negative, focus on the left side. A weak negative is -0.5 greater than or equal to so since -0.94 is less than -0.5 it advances on to the next category of the correlation line, thus resulting in the correlation coefficient to be a strong negative.
