Jasmine compared the two graphs below.Graph ADaily High Temperatures and Bottled Water SalesGraph BDaily High Temperatures and Bottled Water SalesShe decide to use graph A to predict the number of bottles of water that would be sold when the temperature is 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is likely Jasmine’s reasoning?

Question illustration
A
Graph A has a stronger correlation, so it is more likely to provide an accurate prediction.
B
Graph A has a temperature reading of 90 degrees, which is closer to 100 degrees.
C
Graph B has a negative correlation, so it would not be suitable.
D
