as the bill increases, the tip that people leave their waitress decreases.
there is no correlation between the bill and the tip that people leave their waitress increases.
as the bill decreases, the tip that people leave their waitress increases.
as the bill increases, the tip that people leave their waitress increases.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the scatter plot trend

Observe the general direction of the points in the scatter plot. As the bill (x - axis) increases, the tip (y - axis) values also tend to increase.

Step2: Evaluate each option

• Option 1: Says tip decreases with increasing bill, which is opposite to the trend.
• Option 2: Claims no correlation, but there is a positive trend.
• Option 3: Says tip increases with decreasing bill, which is incorrect.
• Option 4: Matches the observed positive trend (as bill increases, tip increases).

Answer:

As the bill increases, the tip that people leave their waitress increases. (The option with this statement, assuming it's the fourth option in the list)
