Question

1. which statement about scatter plots is not true? a) scatter plots are used to see relationships between two variables. b) scatter plots can show a linear association, a non - linear association, or no association. c) for linear associations the line of best fit must go through the origin. d) lines of best fit may not go through any points on the scatter plot.

Explanation:

Scatter plots are used to visualize relationships between two variables. They can show linear, non - linear, or no association. The line of best fit for linear associations does not have to pass through the origin. Lines of best fit are approximated and do not necessarily go through any specific points on the scatter plot.

Answer:

C. For linear associations the line of best fit must go through the origin.
