Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correlation coefficient measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables. It ranges from -1.00 (perfect negative correlation) to +1.00 (perfect positive correlation), with 0.0 indicating no correlation. Therefore, the only valid choices are B, which includes the full range of possible correlation coefficients, or D, which includes only the positive end of the range.
