determine whether the statement is true or false. If the statement is false, rewrite it as a true statement.
The y-intercept b0 of a least-squares regression line has a useful interpretation only if the x-values are either all positive or all negative.
Use an equation to express a least-squares regression line. Interpret each term in the equation.
The scatterplot below shows Olympic gold medal performances in the long jump from 1900 to 1988. The long jump is measured in meters.
Here is the equation of the least squares regression linePredicted long jump = 7.24 + 0.014 * year since 1900.
What does the vertical-intercept (a.k.a. y-intercept) tell us?
