causation
negative correlation
positive correlation
this is a required question

Explanation:

• Association: There is a relationship between the number of dogs and dog - food bought (more dogs likely means more dog - food, but it's not causation as other factors could be at play like different dog sizes).
• Positive correlation: As the number of dogs (independent variable) increases, the amount of dog - food bought (dependent variable) also tends to increase.

Answer:

Association, Positive correlation
