For each scatter plot:

1. Describe the relationship between the data.
2. Draw a line of best fit.

Answer :

The relationship between the datais a negative linear association and the line of best fit is attached

How to determine the association of the scatterplot

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The image of the scatter plot

On the scatter plot, we can see that

The points appear to be on a straight line

Also, we can see that

As the x values increases the y values decreases

This represents a negative linear association.

Using the above as a guide, we conclude that

The relationship between the datais a negative linear association.

Also, to draw the line of best fit we make sure that

The line divides the points on the graph into approximately equal number of points on both sides

The line of best fit is attached (attachment 2)
