suppose the correlation between two variables ( x , y ) in a data set is determined to be r = 0.83, what must be true about the slope, b , of the least-squares line estimated for the same set of data? A. The slope b is always equal to the square of the correlation r.
B. The slope will have the opposite sign as the correlation.
C. The slope will also be a value between −1 and 1.
D. The slope will have the same sign as the correlation.
