When does it make sense to chose a linear function to model a set of data?
If a linear model accurately reflects the measured data, then the linear model makes it easy to predict what outcomes will occur given any input within the range for which the model is valid. I chose the word valid, because many physical occurences may only be linear within a certain range. Consider applying force to stretch a spring. Within a certain distance, the spring will move a linear distance proportional to the force applied. Outside that range, the relationship is no longer linear, so we restrict our model to the range where it does work.
How can you model data with a linear equation?
by figuring out the equation
What is linear model communication?
non-linear model of communication is a way of communication that is thoght to came from the creative side of the brain that gets the message across in a round about way
What are the advantage of linear model?
advantages and disadvantages of linear model communication
What is a linear 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.
How would you interpret the findings of a correlation study that reported a linear correlation coefficient of 1.67?
There is not enough information to say much. To start with, the correlation may not be significant. Furthermore, a linear relationship may not be an appropriate model. If you assume that a linear model is appropriate and if you assume that there is evidence to indicate that the correlation is significant (by this time you might as well assume anything you want!) then you could say that the dependent variable increases by 1.67 for every unit change in the independent variable - within the range of the independent variable.
How would you interpret the findings of a correlation study that reported a linear correlation coefficient of -0.13?
There is not enough information to say much. To start with, the correlation may not be significant. Furthermore, a linear relationship may not be an appropriate model. If you assume that a linear model is appropriate and if you assume that there is evidence to indicate that the correlation is significant (by this time you might as well assume anything you want!) then you could say that the dependent variable decreases by 0.13 units for every unit change in the independent variable - within the range of the independent variable.
What is The model y A plus Bx is a?
It is a linear model.
What do you know about a linear model from the correlation coefficient?
It's a measure of how well a simple linear model accounts for observed variation.
Why is it helpful to use a linear model for a set of data?

What is the normal probability plot of residuals?
When you use linear regression to model the data, there will typically be some amount of error between the predicted value as calculated from your model, and each data point. These differences are called "residuals". If those residuals appear to be essentially random noise (i.e. they resemble a normal (a.k.a. "Gaussian") distribution), then that offers support that your linear model is a good one for the data. However, if your errors are not normally distributed, then they are likely correlated in some way which indicates that your model is not adequately taking into consideration some factor in your data. It could mean that your data is non-linear and that linear regression is not the appropriate modeling technique.
