In fact, I believe both graphs are purely fictitious representations of the concept. They came from the last link in my answer, which was linked to from a different article I was reading that illustrated Simpson's paradox in an econometric setting: Tax Burdens, Per Capita Income, and Simpson’s Paradox | |

For anyone challenged by this colour choice, the graph shows four slightly overlapping clusters each summarized by upward sloping lines, whereas the whole dataset shows a negative relation. | |

In addition, although it might be nitpicking, the fit in the lower plot is not very convincing, since it looks like it assumes all slopes to be equal, which you can clearly tell isn't the case. | |
