• Association

• Causation

• Line of Best Fit

• Linear Regression

A difference between an actual y-value and a predicted

y-value

• Interpolation

• Extrapolation

• Correlations Coefficient

• Residual

Make predictions based on values outside the data points

• Interpolation

• Extrapolation

TRUE OR FALSE: Data points that lie above the trend line should be about the same distance as data points below the trend line.

• True

• False

TRUE OR FALSE: A line of best fit must go through the origin.

• True

• False
