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 do you create a residual plot with a linear regression equation and data?

To create a residual plot with a linear regression equation and data, first fit a linear regression model to your data to obtain the predicted values. Then, calculate the residuals by subtracting the predicted values from the actual values. Plot the residuals on the y-axis against the predicted values (or the independent variable) on the x-axis. This plot helps to visualize the distribution of residuals and check for patterns that may indicate violations of regression assumptions.

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.
