A scatterplot is a type of data display that shows the relationship between two numerical variables.

The correlation between the variables is the pattern or relationship between the variables. A positive correlation occurs when the y-variable tends to increase as the x-variable increases. When the y-variable tends to decrease as the x-variable increases, we say there is a negative correlation between the variables.

The image below shows the type of correlation existing between different datasets:

Going by the image and definition above, the scatterplot provided in the question shows a weak positive correlation.

Therefore, the correct option is OPTION 3: Low Positive.
