The alternative hypothesis for a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) states that the variables being analyzed are correlated. Therefore, the correct choice is C. The null hypothesis, on the other hand, states that the variables are independent, which is not the case for a two-way ANOVA. Choices A and B are incorrect, while choice D is not relevant to the hypothesis in question.
