Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to 1, where -1 indicates a perfect negative relationship, 0 indicates no relationship, and 1 indicates a perfect positive relationship. Among the given options, a coefficient of 60 is not valid as it exceeds the range. Therefore, the strongest relationship is indicated by choice D, which is a correlation coefficient of 1, indicating a perfect positive relationship.
