Is the conjugate base of a weak acid a strong base or weak base?

It's not really one is the other etc.

Menomaths one is pretty good.

It's more like:

The stronger the acid, the weaker the conjugate base.
The weaker the acid, the stronger the conjugate base.
The stronger the base, the weaker the conjugate acid.
The weaker the base, the stronger the conjugate acid.
