If we draw a graph, line of best fit or is that not psychology's thing?

I've come across a question where youve had to draw a graph before

About that psychology and science debate. Popper talks about falsificationism which means that any theory should be open to criticism/ testing and can always be proven to be wrong if contradictory evidence is found, so if thats the case with psychology then it is a credible/scientific subject. But criticism could be that for example Freud's approach is not even scientifically based and theres no evidence for it nor can it be researched. Therefore not science
Kuhn talks about paradigms. There's so many different paradigms in psychology (e.g behavioural, evolutionary, cognitive) that explain behaviour in different ways and contradict one another which would also go against the idea of psychology as a science.
Those who do sociology will be fine if this question comes up

You can determine if its a strong/weak positive/negative correlation without a line of best fit. I've never come across a question where I lost marks for not drawing one.
