Walkthrough
Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Look for an approximate straight-line pattern.
2. Identify direction if the pattern is linear.
3. If curved or patternless, say no clear linear association.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
Calling a curved pattern linear because it is increasing.
