(c) Charmaine compared the statistics from her team's baseball season. She determined that having fewer hits did not imply that a player

caught more or fewer balls. What should she conclude?
There is no correlation between number of hits and number of balls caught.
There is a correlation between number of hits and number of balls caught. There may or may not be causation. Further studies would have to be
done to determine this.
There is a correlation between number of hits and number of balls caught. However, there is no causation. This is because there is probably a
decrease in the number of balls caught with a decrease in the number of hits.
