Does simple linear regression always go through the origin?
No.
What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of making forecasts using regression methods?
+ Linear regression is a simple statistical process and so is easy to carry out. + Some non-linear relationships can be converted to linear relationships using simple transformations. - The error structure may not be suitable for regression (independent, identically distributed). - The regression model used may not be appropriate or an important variable may have been omitted. - The residual error may be too large.
What is Full Regression?
Regression :The average Linear or Non linear relationship between Variables.
Can dummy variables be used in multiple linear regression analysis?
Yes they can.
Why Simple linear regression is important?
It's important to learn this if you plan to go into research. Do well on your statistics class!
How is linear regression used?
Linear regression can be used in statistics in order to create a model out a dependable scalar value and an explanatory variable. Linear regression has applications in finance, economics and environmental science.
Does simple linear regression always go through the origin?
No.
What is the difference between simple and multiple linear regression?
I want to develop a regression model for predicting YardsAllowed as a function of Takeaways, and I need to explain the statistical signifance of the model.

What is the purpose of a residual analysis in simple linear regression?
One of the main reasons for doing so is to check that the assumptions of the errors being independent and identically distributed is true. If that is not the case then the simple linear regression is not an appropriate model.
Simple regression and multiple regression?
Simple regression is used when there is one independent variable. With more independent variables, multiple regression is required.
Where ridge regression is used?
Ridge regression is used in linear regression to deal with multicollinearity. It reduces the MSE of the model in exchange for introducing some bias.
What is Full Regression?
Regression :The average Linear or Non linear relationship between Variables.
Can dummy variables be used in multiple linear regression analysis?
Yes they can.
When would you use simple linear regression?
You use it when the relationship between the two variables of interest is linear. That is, if a constant change in one variable is expected to be accompanied by a constant [possibly different from the first variable] change in the other variable. Note that I used the phrase "accompanied by" rather than "caused by" or "results in". There is no need for a causal relationship between the variables. A simple linear regression may also be used after the original data have been transformed in such a way that the relationship between the transformed variables is linear.

What are the application of linear equation?
They are used in statistics to predict things all the time. It is called linear regression.
