Numerical data is comparable for instance we can compare 'batting average' of a player and classify who's is more or less. So why is the answer 'Categorical' ? Can you please clear this query. 

The doubt is based on Q. No. 2, Activity 1.3, Week 1. Screenshot of the question attached.

Question is saying about the comparative forms of adverbs(like good, better and best) only. They don't have any numeric properties, therefore they belongs to categorical variable.

Thanks

Okay so the question asked is what classification do adverbs like - "good", " Better", "best"   take? is my interpretation right?
