Question

If we were to say that two variables are positively related, this means that:
a) The relationship between the two would graph as a line sloping downward.
b) The relationship between the two would graph as a horizontal line.
c) The relationship between the two would graph as a line sloping upward.
d) The relationship between the two cannot be depicted graphically in any simple way

Answer 1

Positive relation between two variables means that if one variable increases, the other one also increases. Graphically it is depicted as a line sloping upward.
