- Data was collected for a regression analysis comparing car weight and fuel consumption. b0 was found to be 32.7, b1 was found to be -7.6, and R2 was found to be 0.86. Interpret the y-intercept of the line. On average, each one unit increase in the weight of a car decreases its ful consumption by 7.6 units. On average, when x=0, a car gets -7.6 miles per gallon. On average, when x=0, a car gets 32.7 miles per gallon. On average, each one unit increase in the weight of a car increases its fuel comsumption by 32.7 units. We should not interpret the y-intercept in this problem.arrow_forwardThe scatter plot shows the average monthly temperature, x, and a family's monthly heating cost, y, for 25 different months.

Her research discovers a linear relationship, and the least squares line is: ˆy=5−4xy^=5-4x where x is the number of years of schooling completed and y is the number of pregnancies. The slope of the regression line can be interpreted in the following way: When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies tends to decrease by 4. When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies tends to increase by 4. When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies tends to increase by 5. When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies tends to decrease by 5.arrow_forward
