b) no correlation

c) positive correlation

d) no correlation

e) positive correlation

f) positive correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

b) no correlation

c) negative

d) no correlation

e) positive

f) negative

Step-by-step explanation:

A: The older you are, the more likely you are to have a heart attack (when one goes up, the other goes up) so positive

B: IQ is based on logic/reasoning not physical characteristics like their dominant hand. These two things are unrelated so there shouldn't be a correlation

C: The more acid rain there is, the more fish will die, so there will be less fish (when one goes up the other goes down) so that would be negative

D: I'm not a doctor or anything, but I think cancer risks come from the things you're exposed to or if it runs in your family, which is unrelated to height.

E: If you have a college education you should be able to get a higher paying job. More education = higher income so positive

F: The more someone excersises, they are likely to have less fat so that would be negative
