Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. A linear regression model with a positive correlation will have a slope that is greater than $0 .$
Functions of Several Variables
Least Squares Regression Analysis
Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. When the correlation coefficient for a linear regression model is close to $-1,$ the regression line is a poor fit for the data.
Solving Equations and Inequalities
Linear Models and Scatter Plots
Decide whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. If the correlation coefficient for a least squares regression line is close to $-1,$ then the regression line cannot be used to describe the data.
