scattergram
Points showing relationships
A scattergram is a graph that plots data points on two axes to reveal patterns or correlations between variables.
Each point represents one observation, and clusters or trends become visible when many points are plotted: The scattergram showed a clear relationship between hours studied and test scores.
Also called a scatter plot.
