inverse correlation
What metric do you think of when you see this line?
This line is an example of an inverse correlation. As one number increases, the other number decreases. In this example line, as the number depicted on the horizontal axis (x-axis) increases, the number depicted on the vertical axis (y-axis) decreases.
An example could be rabbits in your garden. The more rabbits are in the garden, the fewer flowers you’ll find in your garden.
