Ah, I remember learning about this in my statistics class. The Pearson correlation is all about linear and monotonic relationships. B is the way to go!

Hmm, this is a tricky one. The key is understanding the difference between linear/nonlinear and monotonic/nonmonotonic. I think B is the correct answer, but I better double-check my notes.

I'm not sure about the answer. Can someone explain why it's not nonlinear and nonmonotonic association?

The Pearson correlation measures the linear and monotonic association between two variables, so I'm going with B.
