The correct statement that discusses a key feature of the graph of Lori's goldfish reproduction situation is:
**The points on the graph will have a common ratio of 1.32.**
This is because the population of goldfish will increase by 32% each month, which means the number of fish after each month can be calculated by multiplying the previous month's total by 1.32 (100% + 32% = 132%, or 1.32 as a multiplier). This indicates exponential growth, and thus the points on the graph will follow a common ratio derived from this growth factor.
