Answer to Question 1

Variables can have two relationships: positive (or direct) and negative (or inverse). A positive relationship occurs when the variables move in the same direction, so that when one increases, the other also increases. A negative relationship occurs when the variables move in the opposite direction, so that when one increases, the other decreases. When a positive relationship is graphed, the line slopes upward to the right. When a negative relationship is graphed, the line slopes downward to the right.
