For a straight line graph, if the equation of the graph is written is the slope-intercept form, then the line goes up and to the right when the coefficient of x is positive.
Yes, the slope of a line is the coefficient of the x-term in the line.
slope
Assume that you are correlating two variables x and y. If there is an increasing relationship between x and y, (that is , the graph of y=a+bx, slopes upward), the correlation coefficient is positive. Similarly, if there is a decreasing relationship, the correlation coefficient is negative. The correlation coefficient can assume values only between -1 and 1.
The slope intercept formula is Y=mX + b. M, which is your coefficient of X represents the line's slope.
