Answer: A positive correlation
Explanation:
Correlation tells the relation between two variables.
- A positive correlation exists when two variables are proportional to each other.
- A negative correlation exists when two variables are inversely proportional to each other.
As we know that the amount of weight you gain depends upon the number of calories you eat.
That means the amount of weight is directly proportional to the number of calories you eat ( if not burn by exercise).
That means there is a positive correlation.
So, the correct answer is " a positive correlation."
