13.25 The article “Effect of Temperature on the pH of Skim Milk” (Journal of Dairy Research [1988]:

277– 280) reported on a study involving x 5 temperature

(8C) under specified experimental conditions and y 5 milk pH. The accompanying data (read from a graph) are a representative subset of that which appeared in the article:

Do these data strongly suggest that there is a negative linear relationship between temperature and pH? State and test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of .01.
