Which of the following is true about hypothesis testing for a linear prediction rule?
A)If the correlation coefficient is significant,the regression coefficient will be significant.
B)If the correlation coefficient is significant,the standardized regression coefficient will be significant,but the unstandardized (ordinary)regression coefficient will not.
C)The t test for the correlation coefficient tests the significance of the regression constant.
D)The t test for the correlation coefficient tests the significance of both the regression constant and the regression coefficient.

If the correlation coefficient is significant, it indicates a strong linear relationship between the predictor variable and the response variable. This means that the regression coefficient (slope) will also be significant, as it measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between the two variables. Therefore, choice A is true, whereas choices B, C, and D are incorrect.
