Question
Consider the regression model
y = Bo + B1x1 + B2x2 + B3(x1 × x2) + u.
Which of the following statements is false?
Select one:
a. \(\beta_3 \) indicates the effect of a unit increase in \( \sqrt{x_1 x_2} \) on the conditional mean of \( y \).
O b. The interaction term allows the effect on the conditional means of \( y \) of a change in \( x_1 \) to depend on the value of \(
x_2 \).
O c. \(\beta_1 \) indicates the effect of a unit increase in \( x_1\) on the conditional mean of \( y \) if \( x_2 \) is equal to zero.
O d. \(\beta_3 \\) cannot normally be interpreted on its own in a meaningful way.
O e. The interaction term allows the effect on the conditional means of \( y \) of a change in \( x_2 \) to depend on the value of \(
X_1 \).
