following statements are incorrect?

There cannot be a negative relationship between the two variables.

The Global Happiness Index report contains the Happiness Score data with multiple features
(namely the Economy, Family, Health, and Freedom) that could affect the target variable
value.

Prepare the data by following the steps given below, and answer question 10.

• Split the set of independent features and the dependent feature on the given dataset

• Create training and testing data from the set of independent features and dependent feature
by splitting the original data in the ratio 3:1 respectively, and set the value for random_state of the
training/test split method’s instance as 1
