A box-and-whisker plot shows the distribution of monthly salaries for two departments, Sales and Marketing. If the Sales department's plot has a longer box and shorter whiskers compared to Marketing, what does this suggest about the Sales department's salaries?
✓ Correct Answer: Option B
A longer box indicates a larger interquartile range (middle 50% is more spread out). Shorter whiskers suggest fewer extreme values or outliers. Option B accurately describes this interpretation.
