Given that the correlation coefficient \( r = 1 \), this indicates a perfect positive linear relationship between the two variables: the number of games rented and the dollars spent.
Based on this information, the correct statement is:
The more games rented, the more dollars spent.
This means as the number of games rented increases, the dollars spent also increases correspondingly, reflecting a direct relationship between the two variables. The other statements are incorrect.
