Explanation of Solution

Trend analysis is an important component or technique of Time Series, which uses past data to predict the future. It indicates the change in a variable over a given time period. It may be stationary, positive, or negative.

A positive trend is one in which a rise in one set of data results in an increase in the other set. And a negative trend is one in which a rise in one set of data results in a decrease in the other set. On the other hand, if one set of data rises but the other does not appear to rise or fall, a trend is not there.
