Please help me with this homework question for Evolutionary Biology

1. The data below show the phenotype of the offspring mean on the Y-axis plotted against the
midparent on the X-axis. The line is the line of best fit through the data (linear regression). That
line has a slope of 0.06, and the p-value of 0.13 (as p > 0.05, the relationship is not statistically
significant). Does there appear to be a genetic basis for this character? Explain your answer.
