Does a scatter plot have a linear relationship?

A scatter plot can show a linear relationship between two variables if the points tend to cluster around a straight line. However, not all scatter plots exhibit linear relationships; they can also display nonlinear patterns or no discernible relationship at all. To determine if a linear relationship exists, one can visually inspect the plot or calculate the correlation coefficient.
