A scatterplot showing a negative correlation between altitude on the x-axis and average temperature on the y-axis, with a line of best fit drawn through the data points. The scatterplot shows average temperature (°C) versus altitude (in meters).
A line of best fit is shown with equation . What does the slope of the line of best fit predict about the change in temperature with altitude?
For each meter increase in altitude, the temperature decreases by 0.0065°C.
For each meter increase in altitude, the temperature decreases by 15°C.
For each 100 meters increase in altitude, the temperature decreases by 0.0065°C.
For each meter increase in altitude, the temperature increases by 0.0065°C.
