Identifying Strong and Weak Associations in Scatterplots

This lesson teaches how to identify strong and weak associations in scatterplots by examining the proximity of data points to the line of best fit. It clarifies common misconceptions about the relationship between slope and association strength. The video provides real-world examples, such as quiz and exam scores, and hot chocolate and coffee sales, to illustrate these concepts.

Compare the associations in the scatter plots of quiz scores and exam scores.
