What is a negative correlation mean?
A negative correlation highlights the similarity of opposites. In a negative correlation, as the value of variable a increases, the value of variable b decreases. It can work the other way too, as the value of a decreases, the value of b increases. A negative correlation is also routinely referred to as an inverse. For instance, every time a person goes to jail, there is one less person in the work force. Therefore, incarceration rates, and work force numbers have an inverse relationship.
When the correlation coefficient is negative?
The dependent variable has an inverse linear relationship with the dependent variable. When the dependent increases, the independent decreases, and conversely.
Is the relationship between distance and force in Newton's law of universal gravitation a negative correlation?
No. "Negative correlation" means no relationship can be found between the two quantities. But in the case of the gravitational force, there is a definite, bullet-proof, mathematical connection between the distance and the force. Since a greater distance leads to a smaller force, the relationship is said to be "inverse", but the correlation is definitely not "negative".
