Scatter Plots are graphic representations of the relationship between two variables. Scatter Plots are a good way to look at the correlation between the two variables. The correlation of a Scatter Plot can be three different things. There can be a positive correlation, a negative correlation, and no correlation. A positive correlation means that the variables are related in such a way that they behave similarly. A negative correlation means that the variables are oppositely related. No correlation means that the variables do not seem to have a correlation at all.
