Question
Which of the following data sets or plots could have a regression line with a
negative slope? Select all that apply.


Great work! That's correct.




the difference in the number of ships launched by competing ship builders as a
function of the number of months since the start of last year







the number of hawks sighted per day as a function of the number of days since the
two-week study started







the total number of ships launched by a ship builder as a function of the number of
months since the start of last year







the average number of hawks sighted per day in a series of studies as a function of
the number of days since the ten-week study started





Answer Explanation

, Correct answer:

the difference in the number of ships launched by competing ship builders as a
function of the number of months since the start of last year
the number of hawks sighted per day as a function of the number of days since the
two-week study started
the average number of hawks sighted per day in a series of studies as a function of
the number of days since the ten-week study started

The slope is related to the increase or decrease of the dependent variable as a
function of the independent variable. If the dependent variable can decrease, then
the slope can be negative, such as with the difference in the number of ships
launched.
