A mapping, perhaps.
It need not be a function. The square root of a number, for example is a mapping but not a function (it is one-to-many).
It is not correlation because correlation is only a measure of a LINEAR relationship. If two variables have an even relationship (eg quadratic), the correlation between two symmetric points will be 0 even though there is a clear functional relationship.
The slope of a line is the same thing as the rate of change between two variables in a linear relationship.
By definition, if you graph the relationship between two variables and the result is a straight line (of whatever slope) that is a linear relationship. If it is a curve, rather than a straight line, then it is not linear.
This is called an "inverse" relationship.
line graph
Correlation between two variables implies a linear relationship between them. The existence of correlation implies no causal relationship: the two could be causally related to a third variable. For example, my age is correlated with the number of TV sets in the UK but obviously there is no causal link between them - they are both linked to time.
Line graph is used to show relationship between two variables.
"If coefficient of correlation, "r" between two variables is zero, does it mean that there is no relationship between the variables? Justify your answer".
If two variables are related, then the simplest relationship between them is a linear one. The linear equation expresses such a relationship.If two variables are related, then the simplest relationship between them is a linear one.

correlation * * * * * Only if the relationship is linear. For example, the correlataion between y and x when y = x2 is zero. But a very strong relationship between the two variables.
Inversely proportional.

Equality (identity).
