Option B: There is a negative correlation and a causal correlation. The higher the average daily winter temperature the lower your heating bill.

A negative correlation is when the increase of one factor correlates with the decreasing ot the other, which is what you can expect here, higher temperaure lower heactint bill.

And it is a causal correlation because the winter temperature causes you to use more or less the heating system, which causes the bill.
