Find Y-Intercept to Interpret Scatter Plots

This lesson teaches how to interpret scatter plots by identifying the Y intercept, the point where a line crosses the Y axis. It explains common mistakes, such as confusing Y and X intercepts, and uses examples like homework completion and TV watching to illustrate the concept. The lesson concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding Y intercepts in real-world contexts.
