Question
The following data was collected from October 2018-September 2019 when I lived in Clemson, SC. I am interested in the relationship between the average monthly temperature and the amount I had to pay for power. The following data contains how much my power bill was for each month from October 2018 through September 2019. I’ve also provided the average temperature for each month in Clemson A.) Intuitively, do you think there is a correlation (relationship) between temperature and my power bill? Why?
