Given below are three(3) different plots of the same data showing how the amount of heat radiation transferred from an object changes with the temperature of the object. Note that the scales used for the x and y axes are different.
Which of the following statements is the most correct about the relationship between heat radiation and the temperature of this body. Base this on just the observation of the following plots ("imagine" the corresponding residual plots).

Question

Given below are three(3) different plots of the same data showing how the amount of heat radiation transferred from an object changes with the temperature of the object.  Note that the scales used for the x and y axes are different.  
 Which of the following statements is the most correct about the relationship between heat radiation and the temperature of this body. Base this on just the observation of the following plots ("imagine" the corresponding residual plots).

Accepted Answer

A power law model is indicated with a positive association.

Answer

A linear plot is indicated, so the relationship between heat radiation and temperature is linear.

Answer

The markedly increasing slope indicates that this may be an exponential growth pattern.

Answer

There is insufficient evidence to decide on any specific type of relationship between the variables.

Answer

A power law model is indicated with a negative association.
