It's an interesting graph, not totally convinced it's corollary or causational.  Is this relationship a result of people selling off btc for fiat as soon as they're done with a transaction, or are there other factors?

Number of transactions going up is always good news regardless price. Price can be manipulated, right now there is a war against Bitcoin going on to keep the price down.
Meanwhile more and more people are using it regardless price.
