Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze scatter - plot for association

Examine the general trend of points. If points seem to rise from left - to - right, it's positive; if they fall, it's negative; if no clear trend, no association. Looking at the data points on the scatter - plot, there is no clear upward or downward linear trend. So, there is no linear association.

Step2: Identify outliers

An outlier is a data point that is far from other data points. In the scatter - plot, no single point is extremely far from the rest of the points in terms of both the number of pets and the number of states visited.

Step3: Conclude based on data

Based on the lack of a clear trend and no outliers, we can say that there does not seem to be a strong relationship between the number of pets someone owns and the number of states they have been to.

Answer:

  1. No association
  2. No
  3. There does not seem to be a strong relationship between the number of pets someone owns and the number of states they have been to.
