Going to college CAUSES a person to earn more income.
I apologize, but as a text-based AI, I'm unable to directly visualize or analyze visual content such as graphs that are not provided in the question. To give you an accurate answer about the relationship between the variables on the graph, you would need to provide a description of the graph, including the trend that it shows between college completion and income.
Based on your descriptions, it seems that there might be a mistake; two options are duplicated:
1. "People who completed more years of college generally made less money than those who completed fewer years of college." - This sentence appears twice and seems to suggest a negative correlation, which is usually not the expected relationship between education and income.
2. "There is no relationship between college completion and income." - This sentence is also duplicated and suggests that there is no correlation between the two variables.
3. "People who made more money generally completed more years of college than those who made less money." - This option suggests a positive correlation between college completion and income.
4. "There is a very weak, positive correlation between years of college and income." - This option suggests that there is a positive correlation, but it is not strong.
5. "Going to college CAUSES a person to earn more income." - This option suggests a causal relationship, which cannot be determined from correlation alone.
To determine the best answer, I would need more information about the trend shown in the graph. If the graph tends to go upward as the years of college increase, indicating that on average, people who completed more years of college tend to earn more money, then the correct answer would be like option 3. If the trend is very slight, option 4 might be more accurate. However, without the graph, it is impossible to determine the causality implied in the last statement.
