Skirt lengths and intelligence are randomly correlated having a correlation coefficient of zero to plus 0.15 ie knowing the measure of one does not predict the value of the other--they are independent variables. To say such and such are not correlated is to say you have not compared the variables. They may have identity with a value of plus one, or they may be inversely related having a value of negative one, or they may be randomly correlated with a value of zero--but to compare is to correlate.
The graph and accompanying table shown here display 12 observations of a pair of variables (x, y).The variables x and y are positively correlated, with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.97.What is the slope, b, of the least squares regression line, y = a + bx, for these data? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.2.04 - 2.05
No, they do not.

"If coefficient of correlation, "r" between two variables is zero, does it mean that there is no relationship between the variables? Justify your answer".
1 or -1
If two variables are highly correlated, the Pearson correlation will be close to -1.0 or +1.0. A correlation of zero shows no relationship.
You calculate a correlation coefficient and test to see if it is statistically different from 0.

The number of times a pencil is sharpened and its length
False. Correlation coefficient as denoted by r, ranges from -1 to 1. Coefficient of determination, or r squared ranges from 0 to 1. I note that x,y data points that have a high negative correlation would plot with a negative trend or a negatively sloped line if a best fit regression line is determined. I note also that x,y data points with a high positive correlation would plot with a positive trend or positively sloped line if a best fit regression line is determined. The coefficient of determination for r = 0.9 and r= -0.9 would be 0.81.
The preposition "with" should follow the word "correlated." For example: "The data suggests that these two variables are strongly correlated with each other."
