A Researcher Is Using This Data That Compares Ocean Depth

A researcher is using this data that compares ocean depth to visibility in their research paper.
They want to reorganize the graph because the depth of the water causes the visibility to change. Which of the following changes to the axis would best represent this relationship?

A) The x axis should be flipped so that it is arranged in decreasing visibility
B) The y axis should be flipped so that it is arranged in increasing depth (going down) to mirror how the depth of the ocean increasing (getting deeper) as it goes down
C) The x and y variables should be flipped (the depth is the x variable and the visibility is the y variable)
D) None of the changes listed would correctly show this relationship.
