### Regression Analysis of Heart Weight and Body Weight in Cats

The regression output from a model for predicting the heart weight (in grams) of cats from their body weight (in kilograms) is provided below. The coefficients are estimated using a dataset of 144 domestic cats.

#### Regression Output Table:

|                       | Estimate | Std. Error | t value | Pr(>|t|) |
|-----------------------|----------|------------|---------|----------|
| (Intercept)           | -0.357   | 0.692      | -0.515  | 0.607    |
| body wt               | 4.034    | 0.250      | 16.119  | 0.000    |
|                       |          |            |         |          |
| *s*                   |          |            |         | 1.452    |
| R²                    |          |            |         | 64.66%   |
| R²<sub>adj</sub>      |          |            |         | 64.41%   |

The symbols and terms used in the table include:
- **Estimate**: The estimated coefficient for each predictor.
- **Std. Error**: The standard error of the estimated coefficient.
- **t value**: The t-statistic value used to test the null hypothesis.
- **Pr(>|t|)**: The p-value associated with the t-statistic.
- *s*: The standard error of the regression (residual standard deviation).
- R²: The coefficient of determination.
- R²<sub>adj</sub>: The adjusted coefficient of determination.

#### Hypothesis Testing:

##### (a) Determining Hypotheses
What are the hypotheses for evaluating whether body weight is positively associated with heart weight in cats?

- **Null Hypothesis \(H_0\)**: \(\beta_1 = 0\)
- **Alternative Hypothesis \(H_A\)**: \(\beta_1 > 0\)

The chosen hypotheses are correct based on the detailed setup:

\( \circ \) \( H_0: \beta_1 = 0 \) (checked)

\( \circ \) \( H_A: \beta_1 > 0 \)

#### (b) Conclusion of Hypothesis Test:

State the conclusion of the hypothesis test from part (a) in the context of the data. (Use a significance level of 0
