➢The value of r ranges between ( -1) and ( +1)

➢The value of r denotes the strength of linear
  association as illustrated.

➢As the value approaches the unity, we get a
  strong linear correlation.

➢Notice that we need a good linear correlation
  to construct our (regression) calibration
  curve or plot for the estimation of the
  unknown concentration.
