Based on the scatterplot and regression output above, which ONE of the statements below is true?

Group of answer choices

A. It is surprising that the estimated intercept is -0.357, since we know that both body weight and heart weight can only take non-negative values.

B. On average, cats weighing 1kg more will have hearts which are 4.034 grams heavier.

C. The estimated slope is 4.034, which indicates that there is a strong linear association between a cat's body weight and heart weight.

D. On average, cats weighing 1kg more will have hearts which are 0.357 grams less heavy.

E. The estimated intercept is -0.357 which indicates that the correlation between body weight and heart weight in cats must be negative.
