What is a straight line that comes closest to the points on a scatter plot?
Line of best fit
Which line most accurately models data in a scatter plot?
It is the line of best fit.
A trend line on a graph is the same as the line of best fit?
No.
What is the term for the straight line that comes closest to the points on a scatter plot?
"Line of best fit"
Is it ALWAYS possible to draw a line or curve of best fit in a scatter plot?
yes
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.
What is a purpose of a scatter graph?
By finding a correlation trend by means of line of best fit.
What is a best fit line on a graph?
When points are marked on a graph, a line is often drawn across the dots plotted. A line of best fit is a straight line that goes through as many of such points as possible.
Which type of graph or chart would be best for showing the relationship between paintball mass and distance traveled?
Line graph. I would suggest a scatter graph. That would allow you to determine the line of best fit.

You have to put a line of best fit onto the graph and find where that line crosses the y-axis.
What would you employ to know if there is a statistically significant difference between the means of two groups?
A bar chart, line graph or a scatter gram for the line of best fit
What type of graph can best help you predict the answer to information you never tested?
A scatter graph on the data you already have, then place a regression line ( line of best fit) across the points and predict the information based on this line. It obviously isn't accurate and is only a prediction and if there is no correlation in the plotted points and no line of best fit can be placed on there can be no prediction made.
What is the difference between a best fit graph and a line graph?
a line graph will join all of the points yet a best fit graph will only join the dots which follow the pattern.
