Question

(Don't accept answers from Chat-GPT)You are estimating the following simple linear regression model:

 

Edui = B0 + B1 MomEdu + ui. Where Edu is the years of schooling of an individual and MomEdu is the years of education of the individual's mother (Note: We might estimate this sort of regression to learn about intergenerational transmission of economic success.)
