The following quotes represent statements by students on statistics exams. all but one have errors in them. which one is free of errors? the variables have a correlation of 1.96 the correlation between students' genders and their height is 0.92. o there is almost no correlation between the variables, since r -0.998. o if the correlation coefficient is less than zero, the slope of the regression line will be negative.

d)  If the correlation coefficient is less than zero, the slope of the regression line will be negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the statement free of errors.

a) The variables have a correlation of 1.96

The above statement is wrong as coefficient of correlation ranges from 0 to 1.

b) The correlation between students' genders and their height is 0.92.

The given statement is wrong as gender is a categorical variable.

c) There is almost no correlation between the variables, since r -0.998.

The given statement is wrong as there is a strong negative correlation between the two variable.

d)  If the correlation coefficient is less than zero, the slope of the regression line will be negative.

The following statement is correct
