Explanation:

In a scatter - plot, when one variable increases as the other variable increases, it indicates a positive linear relationship between the two variables, which is called positive correlation. Negative correlation means one variable decreases as the other increases. No correlation means there is no linear relationship between the variables. The line of best fit is a line drawn to approximate the relationship in a scatter - plot.

A. positive correlation
