Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Locate 600 on x - axis

Find 600 on the "Text Messages Sent" (x - axis).

Step2: Read corresponding y - value

Move vertically up from 600 on x - axis until reaching the line of best fit, then move horizontally to the y - axis to read the value. From the scatter - plot, when x = 600, the y - value (number of text messages received) is approximately 600.

Answer:

C. 600
