Answer:

Scatter plots often have a pattern. We call a data point an outlier if it doesn't fit the pattern. A scatterplot plots Backpack weight in kilograms on the y-axis, versus Student weight in kilograms on the x-axis. 5 points rise diagonally in a narrow pattern of points between (40, 4) and (76, 12 and 1 half).
