Aline that is used to represent the linear trend in the data is called the line of best fit. when finding the error of the line of best fit, which statement holds true?

a. if the error is less than one, the line of best fit is the linear equation of the data.
b. the smaller the error, the better the fit.
c. if the error is greater than one, there is no correlation to the line of best fit.
d. the larger the error, the better the fit.

The correct answer is:

B) The smaller the error, the better the fit.

Explanation:

The error tells us how far from the data our regression line is. If the error is large, this means the data is far from our predicted line. If the error is small, this means the data is close to our predicted line. This means the smaller the error, the better the fit of the line to our data.

answer

see attachment

explanation

the given function is

this function has y-intercept at

-4 and a slope of 2.

note that, the graph has a positive slope.

the graph that represents this function is the straight line that moves upward from left to right.

the graph touches the y-axis at -4.

the correct choice is the graph shown in the attachment.
