Correlation and Regression
A school administrator wants to examine the impact of student attendance
on academic performance. To do this, data was collected from 6 students,
recording the number of days they were present in the school year (out of
200) along with their General Weighted Average (GWA). The administrator
hopes to determine whether students who attend more classes tend to
have higher academic performance and how significant the difference is
between those with higher and lower attendance.

1. Positive Correlation
2. Negative Correlation
3. No Correlation
Positive Correlation
• When the points in the graph are rising, moving from left to right, then the
scatter plot shows a positive correlation..
• It means the values of one variable are increasing with respect to another.
• Now positive correlation can further be classified into three categories
1. Perfect Positive - Which represents a perfectly straight line
2. High Positive - All points are nearby
3. Low Positive - When all the points are scattered
Negative Correlation
• When the points in the scatter graph fall while moving left to right, then it is
called a negative correlation.
• It means the values of one variable are decreasing with respect to another.
• These are also of three types:
1. Perfect Negative - Which form almost a straight line
2. High Negative - When points are near to one another
3. Low Negative – When points are in scattered form
No Correlation
•When the points are
scattered all over the graph
and it is difficult to conclude
whether the values are
increasing or decreasing,
then there is no correlation
between the variables.
TAKE NOTE!
• This is the simplest method for confirming whether there is any
relationship between two variables by plotting values on chart or
graph.
• It is nothing but a visual representation of two variables by
points (dots) on a graph.
• In a scatter diagram one variable is taken on the X-axis and other
on the Y-axis and the data is represented in the form of points.
• It is called as a scatter diagram because it indicates scatter of
various points (variables).

The Impact of Social Media Mentions on Sales Revenue
Gentry Timepieces, a distributor of Rolex watches, has been tracking its social media
mentions and monthly sales revenue over the past year. Their CEO, Pareng Hayb, along
with influencers Pareng G and Pareng Cholo, actively promote the brand online.
Noticing a possible link between online engagement and sales, the company wants to
analyze the data to see if increasing social media buzz leads to higher revenue.
