Which one of these correlation coefficient values is the most appropriate choice for the data shown in Plot 4?

Question 2:

This scatterplot shows U.S. divorce rates (per 1,000) and prison rates for drug offenses (percentage admitted to state prison for drug offenses) for 7 years during 1960-1986. The correlation is 0.67.

The correlation is 0.67. What can we conclude from this data? prison rate (drugs) 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 S divorce rate A. The strong correlation suggests that divorce rates contributed to higher prison rates for drug offenses. B. The strong positive correlation between divorce rates and prison rates supports the advocates of traditional family values who argue that keeping divorce rates low will improve society. C. Higher divorce rates are associated with higher prison rates for drug offenses, but this data does not mean that higher divorce rates cause higher prison rates. D. To lower prison rates for drug offenses, a state should provide more marriage counseling.
