Does IQ correlate with life expectancy well?
Does it also explain it?

By definition, IQ is a measure of how intelligent a person is based on what the society sees as useful. So my opinion is that they get to live better lives in a society as long as they keep doing them favors. Society keeps them alive, and high IQs get to keep the society alive. Anyway that's just my opinion.
