    Since the scatter diagram shows a curvilinear relationship, Model (A) will not be
    suitable.
    The scatter diagram shows a decreasing concave upwards trend.
    Hence Model (B) is not suitable as it has a decreasing concave downwards shape.
    Model (C) will be the most suitable model as it has a decreasing concave upwards
    shape.
