     a. The process is not in control because there are several points that exceed the upper limit line.

     b. The process is not in control because the first half of the points are generally below the center line, while the second half          are generally above the center line.

     c. The process is not in control because the points tend to trend lower from left to right.

     d. The process is not in control because several points are less than the lower limit line.
