Answer:

The variables are likely to present a positive linear relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

Land is commonly priced as a linear function of area, be it in km², miles² or acres. That is, it is usual to assign a monetary value to a unit of area. Therefore, the price of land (P) as a function of its area (A), in acres, can be given by:

[tex]P(A) = kA[/tex]

Where 'k' is a positive constant rate as price increases when area increases. Therefore,  the two given variables are likely to present a positive linear relationship.
