Understand that a scatter plot is a graphical representation used to observe the relationship between two variables.
Recall that scatter plots require both variables to be numerical (quantitative) so that each point can be plotted on an x-y coordinate system.
Recognize that qualitative (categorical) variables cannot be directly plotted on a scatter plot because they do not have a meaningful numeric scale.
Therefore, to create a scatter plot, you need two quantitative variables, where one variable is plotted on the x-axis and the other on the y-axis.
Conclude that the correct choice is 'Two quantitative variables' because this allows visualization of how one numeric variable changes with respect to another.
