Please don't hesltate to glve a "thumbs up" for the answer In case the answer has helped you
1. ist graph ideally should have residuals lined to the
theoritical quantiles.
Hence, residuals aligned to a line is a correct graph.
Hence, this graph looks good
2. Residual to fitted values graph is randomly spread,
and hence looks good
3. constant variance of residuals and Order of collection
Looks good
4. Residual graph on length of gestation - looks good
5. Parity residual graph - looks good, constant variance
6. Height of mother reisdual plot - no problem, almost random
variance
7. Weight of mother residuals - constantly distributed.
8. Constant variance of Smoke residuals
