Are a JFET's Idss and Vgs(off) values correlated?
I know that many JFETs parameters have a very large manufacturing spread, in particular, $I_{DSS}$ and $V_{GS(off)}$, as one can see (for example) in this datasheet excerpt:

![J175/J176 datasheet header](https://electrical.codidact.com/uploads/ser6qmcfe4isl847n6pg4xqt6iui)

...

![J175/J176 datasheet - electrical characteristics table](https://electrical.codidact.com/uploads/ioyxlpsiuqw0ri07brxjdcw7ezm9)

My question is if the spread of these two parameters are somewhat correlated, that is: do we know whether part specimens with higher (in magnitude) $I_{DSS}$ will also have higher (in magnitude) $V_{GS(off)}?

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.
