Step 1: Understand the difference between positive and normative analysis. Positive analysis deals with objective, fact-based statements that can be tested, while normative analysis involves subjective, value-based judgments about what ought to be.
Step 2: Recognize that when two variables change in the same direction, it means that as one variable increases, the other also increases, or as one decreases, the other decreases.
Step 3: Recall the concept of correlation in statistics and economics. When two variables move together in the same direction, they are said to be positively correlated.
Step 4: Note that correlation describes the relationship between variables without implying any value judgment, so it is part of positive analysis rather than normative analysis.
Step 5: Conclude that the best description of two variables changing in the same direction is that they are positively correlated.
