What would you say about a set of quantitative bivariate data whose linear correlation is -1? What would a scatter diagram of the data look like? (5 points)
Business discuss
Analyze the residuals of a linear regression model and select the best response.
yes, the residual plot does not show a curve
no, the residual plot shows a curve
yes, the residual plot shows a curve
no, the residual plot does not show a curve
I answered, "No, the residual plot shows a curve." (and this was incorrect). I am not sure why I keep getting these wrong when the answer seems obvious. Please help me understand what the yes and no references in the answer.

This option is European-type, with maturity 3 months (i.e. T = 0.25 years), and payoff given by F = (8-5)+ (a) Write the Stochastic Differential Equation satisfied by (St) under the risk-neutral measure Q.
