Which of the following CANNOT be determined from a regression equation? An estimate of the response value at a specified value for the predictor An estimate of the slope of the linear correlation An estimate of the intercept of the linear correlation Whether the linear correlation is positive or negative Whether the correlation is linear or non-linear

Solution

OPTION E: Whether the correlation is linear or non-linear. [ANSWER]

********************

We can predict y by plugging in the value of an x. [a]

We can estimate the slope and intercept as they are B1 and B0. [b and c]

If B1 is positive/negative, then the correlation is positive/negative, respectively.

Hence, it is only E that is false.
