Please show solution and explain why. Thank you!

Consider the random variables of batting average and percentage of strikeouts for professional baseball players. A random sample of six professional baseball players gave the following information.
Batting Average 0.328 0.290 0.340 0.248 0.367 0.269
Strikeout Percentage 3.2 7.6 4.0 8.6 3.1 11.1
Based on this sample,
we have evidence that a greater percentage of strikeouts is associated with a lower batting average since the P-value<1%.
we do not have evidence that a greater percentage of strikeouts is associated with a lower batting average since the P-value<1%.
there is a statistically significant positive correlation between percentage of strikeouts and batting average.

Both a and c are correct.
