Understand that correlation measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables.
Recall that a negative correlation means the two variables move in opposite directions.
Interpret a negative correlation as: when one variable increases, the other variable tends to decrease.
Note that correlation does not imply causation, so it does not mean one variable causes the other to decrease.
Recognize that a correlation of exactly 0 means no linear relationship, which is different from a negative correlation.
