Answer:

Negative association

Explanation:

Positive association is when both variables increase. On a graph, the line would be going up from left to right.

No association is when the two variables don't make a line, and the data is scattered all over a graph.

There is enough information to determine this question.

That leaves B, negative association. Negative association is when one variable increases as the other decreases. On a graph, the line would be read as a line going down from left to right.
