B. The variability decreases

Clinton · Answer 2

C. The variability increases

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger the sample, the less variability there is.

The smaller the sample, the more variability there is.

Bias has to do with how randomly the sample is selected. Assuming that method doesn't change, the bias doesn't change.
