Can predictions be made of a scatterplot that shows no association? explain your answer.

No, you can't make a prediction from a scatter plot that doesn't show any associations. There have to be associations in order to form a trend. If there is no trend, there is no way to make a prediction. A scatter plot is similar to a line graph where you can mark the appropriate data points in order to see if a trend is developing.

No, because no association means there is no relationship between the variables. So there is no pattern that results in reliable predictions.
