Question

The following scatterplot represents the number of negative consumer reviews for a given model of cell phone and the total number of that same cell phone model that were sold. Is it reasonable to predict that if there are 75 negative reviews the number of cell phones sold of that same model will be close to 850,000? Why or why not

Answer 1

According to the plotted line, we can see that for 75 negative reviews, an approximate number of phones sold is 600,000, that is not close to 850,000. Therefore, it is not reasonable to predict that if there are 75 negative reviews, the number of cell phones sold will be close to 850,000
