I can’t see the image files you referenced. Could you either upload the four scatterplots here or describe each one (direction of trend, how tightly the points cluster around a straight line, any outliers)?
Tip to decide yourself: r = 1 is a perfect positive linear correlation — points lie exactly (or almost exactly) on a straight line with positive slope. So pick the plot where the points form the tightest straight-line pattern going up from left to right (no strong curvature or large outliers).
