In a scatterplot with a negative, linear correlation, the correct statement is:
**As the x-values increase, the y-values tend to decrease.**
This means that when you observe an increase in the x-values, the corresponding y-values show a tendency to decline, illustrating the negative correlation between the two variables.
**As the x-values increase, the y-values tend to decrease.**
This means that when you observe an increase in the x-values, the corresponding y-values show a tendency to decline, illustrating the negative correlation between the two variables.
