- Or can we have any combination of $I_{DSS}$ values vs. $V_{GS(off)}$ values?
Bonus points if the answers not only is based on referenced statistical data, but also explains why the correlation exists (if it does), e.g. by mentioning factors in the manufacturing process that cause the correlation to exist.
