Answer 6

Yes, scatter plots are just the coordinates, you don't connect them with a line. However, it does ask for a trend line in which case you would draw a rough line that would sorta connect the dots.

Answer 17

As for the interpolation or the extrapolation, I'm not sure. I was never taught. :(

Answer 18

Can you Google the definitions for me can copy and paste them in here, please?

Answer 19

Interpolation is guessing data points that fall within the range of the data you have, i.e. between your existing data points. Extrapolation is guessing data points from beyond the range of your data set.
