Question
The task is to match the linear correlation coefficient to the scatter diagram. The given correlation coefficient is -0.784. Four scatter plot options are provided to choose from, labeled as A, B, C, and D.

**Scatter Plot A:**
- Displays a downward trend with a cluster of points that generally move from the upper left to the lower right.
- Suggests a possible negative correlation.

**Scatter Plot B:**
- Points show an upward linear trend, moving from the lower left to the upper right.
- Indicates a positive correlation.

**Scatter Plot C:**
- Exhibits a clear downward trend with closely grouped points, moving from top left to bottom right.
- Strongly suggests a negative correlation, potentially a match for -0.784.

**Scatter Plot D:**
- Points are scattered, with a general downward trend, but less clustered than C.
- Suggests a weaker negative correlation.

To submit your answer, use the checkbox next to each option and then click the "Check Answer" button.

(Note: Choose the graph that best fits the correlation coefficient of -0.784, which would likely be Scatter Plot C due to its clear strong negative correlation.)
