Explanation / Answer

Q. 12

Mod of correlation coefficient is close to 1 (here, 0.991) indicates very strong correlation (as value close to 0 indicates weak correlation)

Sign is negative hence it indicate negative relationship, that is increase in one variable results in decrease of other

Thus, option 4. Very strong linear association in a negative direction

Q.13  

Option 4. A lurking or cofounding variable

as A lurking variable is a variable that is not included as an explanatory(x in our case) or response(y in our case) variable in the analysis but can affect the interpretation of relationships between variables
