Classify the strength of a linear association from r
Use the taught bands for Pearson's correlation coefficient
For these exercises, |r| < 0.25: no association; 0.25 ≤ |r| < 0.50: weak; 0.50 ≤ |r| < 0.75: moderate; 0.75 ≤ |r| ≤ 1: strong. The sign gives the direction. At |r| = 1, also state perfect linear association
