What is a line that is not a line but is almost a line?
A line of best-fit.
What is a straight line that best fits the data on the coordinate plane?
The straight line that best fits the data on a coordinate plane is the Line Of Best Fit.
Is the best fit line the same as the line of best fit?
Yes but phrased differently
Why does best fit line does not touch all data points?
Because the "best fit" line is usually required to be a straight line, but the data points are not all on one straight line. (If they were, then the best-fit line would be a real no-brainer.)
What is a best-fit-line?
A best-fit line is the straight line which most accurately represents a set of data/points. It is defined as the line that is the smallest average distance from the data/points. Refer to the related links for an illustration of a best fit line.
Which law is assocaited with inertia?
Newton's First Law - objects stay at rest or move in a straight line at constant velocity if not forces are acting on it. (Paraphrased).
What is a line that is not a line but is almost a line?
A line of best-fit.
What is a line of best fit on a line graph?
The line that minimized the sum of the squares of the diffences of each point from the line is the line of best fit.
Which is the best equationof a line of best fit this scatterplot?
A straight line equation
What is the difference between a trend line and a line of best fit and how are they useful in analyzing data?
What is the difference between a trend line and a line of best fit
What is a straight line that best fits the data on the coordinate plane?
The straight line that best fits the data on a coordinate plane is the Line Of Best Fit.
Why does the line of best fit have to start from 0?
The line of best fit does not have to start from 0.
Is the best fit line the same as the line of best fit?
Yes but phrased differently

Why is a best fit line used?
The line of best fit is the best possible answer you can get from raw data. They also can be used to make predictions.
How do you find a line of best fit from scatter plot?
The line of best fit is simply the line that shows the general direction of the graph. The trick is to make the line go through as many points on the graph as possible. Some scatter plots have no line of best fit.
