A random sample of five pairs of values of \(x\) and \(y\) is taken from a bivariate distribution. The values are shown in the following table, where \(p\) and \(q\) are constants.

\(x\) 1 2 3 4 5
\(y\) 4 \(p\) \(q\) 2 1

The equation of the regression line of \(y\) on \(x\) is \(y=-0.5x+3.5\).

(i) Find the values of \(p\) and \(q\).

(ii) Find the value of the product moment correlation coefficient.
