### Investigating the Relationship Between Brain Size and Individual IQ

Researchers sought to determine if there is a relationship between the size of a person's brain and their mental capacity, as represented by IQ scores. They selected a sample consisting of 5 females and 5 males and measured their MRI image pixel counts along with their IQ scores. The collected data is presented in the table below. Complete parts (a) through (d) based on this data.

#### Data Table

|       | Females |       |       | Males |       |
|-------|---------|-------|-------|-------|-------|
|       | MRI     | IQ    |       | MRI   | IQ    |
| 1     | 852,244 | 132   |       | 949,395 | 140   |
| 2     | 833,868 | 132   |       | 955,466 | 133   |
| 3     | 857,782 | 133   |       | 955,003 | 139   |
| 4     | 790,619 | 135   |       | 965,353 | 133   |

### Part (a) - Scatter Diagram

Draw a scatter diagram treating MRI count as the explanatory variable and IQ as the response variable. Choose the correct diagram below:

1. **Option A** 
   - MRI on the y-axis 
   - IQ on the x-axis 
   - Data points scattered, no clear linear relationship
   
![Option A Image](image-link)

2. **Option B** 
   - MRI on the y-axis 
   - IQ on the x-axis 
   - Data points scattered, no clear linear relationship
   
![Option B Image](image-link)

3. **Option C**
   - MRI on the x-axis
   - IQ on the y-axis
   - Data points slightly suggest a positive linear relationship

![Option C Image](image-link)

**Correct Diagram:** Option C

### Part (b) - Linear Correlation Coefficient

Compute the linear correlation coefficient between MRI count and IQ. Are MRI count and IQ linearly related? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, round the coefficient to three decimal places.

- [ ] A. Yes, MRI count
