Below you are given a partial Excel output based on a sample of 16 observations.

ANOVA        
  df    SS MS F
Regression     4,853   2,426.5    
Residual         485.3    
               
  Coefficients Standard Error
Intercept 12.924   4.425  
x1 -3.682   2.630  
x2 45.216   12.560  

The interpretation of the coefficient of x1 is that _____.
  a. a one-unit increase in x1 will lead to a 3.682-unit decrease in y when all other variables are held constant  
  b. a on-unit increase in x1 will lead to a 3.682-unit decrease in x2 when all other variables are held constant  
  c. It is impossible to interpret the coefficient.  
  d. a one-unit change in x1 will lead to a 3.682-unit decrease in y
