c. Most of the data points are close to the mean value of the set.

For a large data set with a normal distribution, the normal distribution is characterized by a bell-shaped curve, and most data points are concentrated around the mean. The assumption that most data points are close to the mean is aligned with the central tendency of a normal distribution.
