The scatter plot (Fig.1) Shows us a low correlation between the two variables, with an R^2 of only 0.062, it tells us that the variables are very close to being independent. We can see that the data are very clustered towards the center, having a very high number of observation in the middle of the graph, while the points on the outside are more spread out and in much lower number. We also see that the regression curve has a positive slope, implying a positive correlation.
