Correct. An outlier can either pull r closer to +1.0, –1.0 or 0.0 depending on where the outlier is relative to the other data.

Correct. “r” is computed from bivariate quantitative data. You should never compute “r” with categorical data. In this claim, correlation may not have been computed, but rather the term “correlation” is used incorrectly.
