The (x,y) points can be approximated by a linear equation. The (x,y) points are almost linearly related.
A scatter plot would be best for non-related data points. A line graph would be best for related data points.

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.

A straight line which best describes the data on a scatter plot is called a "line of best fit". The line could pass through some of the points, all of them, or none of them.

Yes if all points are on the same line of best fit
You can have a line of best fit. It is the line that cuts through the points with the least amount of distance to all the data.
Data points that are not close to the line of best fit are called outliers.
