Problem-Solving and Data Analysis - Two-variable data: Models and scatterplots

  • The scatterplot has 11 data points.
  • The data points are in a linear pattern trending up from left to right.
  • A line of best fit is shown:
    • The line of best fit slants up from left to right.
    • 5 points are above the line of best fit.
    • 6 points are below the line of best fit.
    • The line of best fit passes through the following approximate coordinates:
      • (2 comma 2.9)
      • (8 comma 7.7)

The scatterplot shows the relationship between two variables, x and y . A line of best fit is also shown. For how many of the 11 data points does the line of best fit predict a greater y -value than the actual y -value?
