Perfect Positive Correlation
A perfect positive correlation is indicated when the correlation coefficient, denoted by r, is equal to +1. This signifies a perfect direct linear relationship between two variables, meaning that as one variable increases, the other also increases by a perfectly predictable amount. The mathematical representation is:

Perfect Negative Correlation
A data scientist is studying the relationships between different variables. They calculate the following correlation coefficients:
- Relationship 1: Between hours spent studying and exam scores, the coefficient is +0.85.
- Relationship 2: Between daily screen time and sleep quality, the coefficient is -0.90.
- Relationship 3: Between daily water intake and commute time, the coefficient is +0.10.
Based on these coefficients, which statement accurately compares the strength of these relationships?
