Answer:

Relationship is linear as r is closest to 1.

Explanation:

From statistics we know that,

$\text{Corelation Coefficient}=r=(n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y))/(√([n\sum x^2-(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2-(\sum y)^2]]))$

Putting all the values from the table,

we get corelation factor as 0.9995

Therefore, the relationship is linear as r is closest to 1.
