An organization that tracks crime statistics reports that cars of make A model​ U, make A model​ V, and make B model W are the cars most frequently reported​ stolen, while cars of make C model​ X, make D model​ Y, and make E model Z are stolen least often. Is it reasonable to say that​ there's a correlation between the type of car a person owns and the risk that it will be​ stolen?   Choose the correct answer below.     A. ​No, because there is clearly no association between the two variables.   B. ​Yes, since there is clearly an association between the two variables.   C. ​No, since the type of car a person owns is not a quantitative variable.   D. ​Yes, since it is reasonable to find a correlation between any two variables.   E. ​No, since there are too few data points to use correlation.
