Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The coefficient of correlation measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables. It ranges from -1 to +1, with a correlation of +1 indicating a perfect positive linear relationship, 0 indicating no linear relationship, and -1 indicating a perfect negative linear relationship. The other options (rational coefficient, standard deviation, coefficient of variation) are not specific measures of the degree of relationship between two measures.
