    It is given that, there is positive correlation between drinking coconut milk and eating potato chips.

    →Correlation coefficient is denoted by r.

    →The value of r lies between, - 1 and 1 which is represented as, - 1 ≤r≤1.

    →Correlation that is relation between two variables is said to be strongly positive, if r is equal to 1, and it is said to be strongly weak, if it is equal to - 1, and said to have no association if r=0.

    → The meaning of positive correlation is that value of r, is greater than >0.8 but less than 1.

    The two variables which are positively correlated, can have following relationship.
