An illustration of a scatterplot shows x on x-axis from 1 to 5 in increments of 0.5 and y on the y-axis from 9 to 14 in increments of 0.5. Ten points are plotted. The approximate plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 1 comma 10 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 1 comma 14 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 11 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 13 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 9 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 12 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 11 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 14 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4.5 comma 12 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 5 comma 9 right parenthesis.
Is there a relationship between the two sets of data? How do you know?

Based on the description of the scatterplot and the distribution of the points, it appears that there is a general trend. The points suggest some variability but cluster in a way that allows for the possibility of drawing a trend line.
Therefore, the correct response is:
Yes, you can draw a trend line.
