The data points follow an overall linear trend, as opposed to being randomly distributed. Though there are a few outliers, there is a general relationship between the two variables.
A line could accurately predict the trend of the data points, suggesting there is a linear correlation. Since the y-values decrease as the x-values increase, the correlation must be negative. We can see that a line connecting the upper-most and lower-most points would have a negative slope.
An exponential relationship would be curved, rather than straight.

A basketball coach wants to determine if a player's height can be used to predict the number of points that player scores in a season. Before using a statistical test to determine the precise relationship of the variables, the coach wants a visual of the data to see if there is likely to be a relationship. Which of the following should the coach create?
