Responses

negative association
negative association

no association

linear
linear

nonlinear

Answer 1

Based on the description of the graph titled "Basketball Card Values," where there is a curve plotted along with various points in quadrant 1 (Years vs. Dollars), it suggests that the relationship between years and dollars is not a straight line. Since it is indicated that there is a curve, this implies that the relationship is likely nonlinear.

Therefore, the best description of the relationship this dataset represents is nonlinear.
