What does the graphic tell?

A plot can be very useful to explore the relationship between two variables. If you pass the plot() function two arguments, the first one will be plotted on the x-axis, the second one will be plotted on the y-axis.

The sugar trading data is again available at http://assets.datacamp.com/production/course_1478/datasets/trade.dta.

Possible answers
