A scatter chart pairs two variables to show if there is a relationship between them. If a correlation is found, a line or curved shape will be seen on the graph.
Summary
A scatter chart has two numeric variables: an independent and a dependent variable. Common practice dictates, the horizontal axis is the independent variable, and the vertical axis is the dependent variable. To show relationships, the scatter chart can have positive or negative, strong or weak, and linear or nonlinear correlations. When interpreting a scatter plot, remember that correlation does not imply causation. There could be a third variable affecting both plotted variables.
