A Researcher Conducted a Correlational Study

A researcher conducted a correlational study. He studied the relationship between individuals' perceptions of their own bodies on a rating scale (higher scores meant most positive self-perception) and their perception of the college (higher scores meant more positive perception of the college) . He found a spearman correlation of -.68 and the result is statistically significant. What does this mean?

A) Body image and college ratings are positively correlated: those who have better self-perception of their body had worse perceptions of the college.
B) Body image and college ratings are positively correlated: those who have better self-perception of their body had better perceptions of the college
C) Body image and college ratings are negatively correlated: as self-perception of one's body got higher, perception of the college got lower.
D) Body image and college ratings are negatively correlated: as self-perception of one's body got higher, perception of the college got higher.
