Mr. James, president of Daniel-James Financial Services, believes that there is a relationship between the number of client contacts and the dollar amount of sales. To document this assertion, he gathered the following information from a sample of clients for the last month. Let X represent the number of times that the client was contacted and Y represent the valye of sales ($1000) for each client sampled.

a) Compute the regression equation for client contacts and sales. Interpret the slope and intercept parameters.
Suppose that a sample of n = 12 pairs of X and Y scores has SSY = 90 and a Pearson correlation of r = +0.40. Does the regression equation predict a significant portion of the variance? Test with α = .05.(hint: SStotal = SSY; r2 = SSregression/SSTotal)
If there is no significant correlation between the response and explanatory variables, would the slope of the regression line be (a) positive (b) negative (c) zero?
