I need a real life example of a negative correlation asap!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In a negative correlation, as the values of one of the variables increase, the values of the second variable decrease. Likewise, as the value of one of the variables decreases, the value of the other variable increases. Example: 1. Education and years in jail-people who have more years of education tend to have fewer years in jail (or phrased as people with more years in jail tend to have fewer years of education)

Examples of negative correlations temperature -- number of clothing layers people wear amount of exercise -- % body fat
