Adele and monte are discussing graphs with negative correlation. adele claims that only graph b has negative correlation. monte claims that both scatterplots have a negative correlation. adele is correct because only lines may have a negative slope. adele is correct because the y values increase as the x values decrease in graph a, so it shows a positive correlation. monte is correct because both graphs show a strong correlation. monte is correct because in both scatterplots, the y values decrease as the x values increase so both have a negative correlation.
