A graph has age (weeks) on the x-axis, and height (inches) on the y-axis. Points are grouped closely together and increase slightly.

Describe the relationship between the variables.
There is no relationship between the variables.
As the age increases, the height increases.
As the age increases, the height decreases.
As the height decreases, the age decreases.

Based on your description of the graph, the most accurate statement about the relationship between the variables is:

As the age increases, the height increases.

This indicates a positive correlation between age (weeks) and height (inches), suggesting that, generally, taller heights are associated with older ages within the range observed on the graph.
