Two variables have a correlation coefficient equal to +0.55 from a sample size of 8. Which one of the following statements describes the results of the hypothesis test that the population correlation coefficient is greater than zero using α = 0.05?

▸ Because the test statistic is greater than the critical value, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the population correlation coefficient is not greater than zero.

▸ Because the test statistic is greater than the critical value, we can reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the population correlation coefficient is greater than zero.
