When one is likely to be the cause of the other, you generally make it the x variable.

Y is the dependent variable. In this case, the correlation would indicate that more time doing schoolwork leads to a higher GPA.

Schoolwork is the x, or independent variable.

GPA is the y variable, because grades depend on doing schoolwork.
