Would the result be helpful?
A.
No, because the description would be the same regardless of shoe print length.

Yes, because the correlation is strong, so the predicted…
What is the relationship between diamond price and carat size? 307 diamonds were sampled and a straight-line relationship was hypothesized between y = diamond price (in dollars) and x = size of the diamond (in carats). The simple linear regression for the analysis is shown below:
Least Squares Linear Regression of PRICE
Interpret the standard deviation of the regression model.
a) We expect most of the sampled diamond prices to fall within $1117.56 of their least squares predicted values.
b) We can explain 89.25% of the variation in the sampled diamond prices around their mean using the size of the diamond in a linear model.
c) For every 1-carat increase in the size of a diamond, we estimate that the price of the diamond will increase by $1117.56.
d) We expect most of the sampled diamond prices to fall within $2235.12 of their least squares predicted values.
