Can you discuss the potential pitfalls of this scenario?

The regression equation based on data from years 1 thru 10 is,

y = 6 + 32 x

Where, X = Year

We want to forecast a result in year 20, i.e. find value of y when x = 20

Solution :

The forecast result in year 20 is,

y = 6 + (32)*(20)

y = 6 + 640

y = 646 

The forecast result in year 20 is 646.
