Two variables are correlated with r = 0.44.Which description best describes the strength and direction of the association between the variables? moderate positivestrong negativestrong positivemoderate negative

It's moderate positive because when the number is closer to zero the weaker it is and the closer to one its stronger so since 0.44 is in more in the middle it moderate and since there is no negative sign which is - then it moderate positive. Btw I took the test and it was right.
