Answer:

b. strong; negative

Step-by-step explanation:

When a correlation has a value greater than 0.74 or lesser than -0.70, it is classified as a strong correlation.

A negative value for a correlation means a negative (downhill) linear correlation.

Therefore, since the correlation coefficient found by Frank Fitness is -0.74, there is a strong and negative relationship between hours of strenuous exercise and body mass.
