Leena has no credit history. This is because she is still in high school and hasn't borrowed money from a bank or used a credit card before. Since she only babysits and saves her money in a checking account, there are no records of her borrowing or paying back money to show that she can handle credit. To get a credit card, she needs to prove that she can use credit responsibly, but right now, she has never done that. So, she doesn't have a positive or negative credit history, just no credit history at all.
