Hey Nikhita, how are you doing?
So to know which degree would get you a good-paying job amongst MS in Business Analytics and MS in Data Analytics, you need to understand the basic difference between them. Both of these degrees would make you equipped with the ability to use data and make more accurate decisions by utilizing statistics and software tools. You would get hands-on experience on analysis techniques but the major difference is that in data analytics you would be turning data into analytics while in business analytics, you would have to use that data for the business acumen such as marketing, finance etc. and create an advantage for the organization. 
According to my research, the demand of a business analyst is more than that of a data analyst in the USA as those candidates have the ability to turn data and statistics into the benefit of the organization. So I believe an MS in Business Analytics would be more beneficial in terms of package.
