no correalation
The relationship between two variables is called a relation. A relation in which a set of input values maps onto a set of output values such that each input corresponds to at most one output is called a "function." Functions do not necessarily have to be lines; they do not even have to be exponential, or parabolic, or continuous. A bunch of scattered points or lines that meets the requirements can still be considered a function involving two variables.
Continuous variables have an unlimited number of possibilities between two points. In the scientific realm, age is a continuous variable.
I think you are going for continuous variable, as compared with discrete variables.
It is called the line of best fit
The points are increasing from left to right. They are scattered but they are increasing non the less.
No correlation. Answer provided by
You get a set of points that appear to be scattered randomly.
There is no such thing as a general pattern. Depending on the variables and the relationship between them, you can have points all over the plot, exactly on a straight line or a curve, or close to such a line or curve.
When the data on the graph is continuous,it does make sense to connect the points on the graph of 2 related variables.

"Player" is the independent variable, and "Points" is the dependent variable.
A linear pattern is a consistent and predictable change in a series of data points that can be represented by a straight line on a graph. It indicates a constant rate of change between the variables being studied.
Positive correlation
The height of the land, and the scale of the map
It means that a certain set of points are all on the same line.
Correlation is an estimate of a linear relationship between two variables and takes no account of non-linear relationship. If the relationship is quadratic and the domain is symmetric about some point, the correlation will be zero. It is, thus possible for the points on the scatter plot to lie exactly on a parabola while the calculated correlation is zero. In such a case, it is easy to make a prediction despite no correlation.
Not linearly related.
