Textbook Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.102LM
Consider the following sample data.
- a. Construct a scatterplot for the data.
- b. It is possible to find many lines for which Σ(y − ŷ) = 0. For this reason, the criterion Σ(y − ŷ) = 0. is not used for identifying the “best-fitting” straight line. Find two lines that have Σ(y − ŷ) = 0.
- c. Find the least squares line.
- d. Compare the value of SSE for the least squares line with that of the two lines you found in part b. What principle of least squares is demonstrated by this comparison?

Given the least squares line = 40.9941 − 0.5263x:
(a) Make a residual plot for the least-squares model. Be sure to plot the horizontal line at y = 0.
(b) Use the residual plot to comment about the appropriateness of the least squares model for these data.
The residuals do not seem to be scattered randomly around the horizontal line at 0. There do not appear to be any outliers.The residuals seem to be scattered randomly around the horizontal line at 0.
