<p>If <span class="math inline">\(\beta_1 = 0\)</span>, then the model
reduces to <span class="math inline">\(Y_i = \beta_0 +

the mean of <span class="math inline">\(Y\)</span> if the null
hypothesis is true.</p>
<p>If <span class="math inline">\(\beta_0 = 0\)</span>, then the model
reduces to <span class="math inline">\(Y_i = \beta_1 X +
\epsilon_i\)</span>, a line going through the origin. This means the
average <span class="math inline">\(Y\)</span>-value is <span
class="math inline">\(0\)</span> when <span

<p><strong>Assumptions</strong></p>
<p>This regression model is appropriate for the data when five
assumptions can be made.</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li><p><strong>Linear Relation</strong>: the true regression relation
between <span class="math inline">\(Y\)</span> and <span
class="math inline">\(X\)</span> is linear.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Normal Errors</strong>: the error terms <span
class="math inline">\(\epsilon_i\)</span> are normally distributed with
a mean of zero.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Constant Variance</strong>: the variance <span
class="math inline">\(\sigma^2\)</span> of the error terms is constant
(the same) over all <span class="math inline">\(X_i\)</span>
values.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Fixed X</strong>: the <span
class="math inline">\(X_i\)</span> values can be considered fixed and
measured without error.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Independent Errors</strong>: the error terms <span
class="math inline">\(\epsilon_i\)</span> are independent.</p></li>
</ol>
<div style="font-size:0.8em;">
<p>Note: see the <strong>Explanation</strong> tab <strong>Residual Plots
& Regression Assumptions</strong> for details about checking the
regression assumptions.</p>
</div>
<p><strong>Interpretation</strong></p>
<p>The slope is interpreted as, "the change in the average y-value for a
one unit change in the x-value." It <strong>is not</strong> the average
change in y. <strong>It is</strong> the change in the average
y-value.</p>
<p>The y-intercept is interpreted as, "the average y-value when x is
zero." It is often not meaningful, but is sometimes useful. It just
depends if x being zero is meaningful or not within the context of your
analysis. For example, knowing the average price of a car with zero
miles is useful. However, pretending to know the average height of adult
males that weigh zero pounds, is not useful.</p>

regression line is the least squares line, the mean of the residuals
will ALWAYS be zero, so it is never included in the output summary. This
particular median value of -2.272 is a little smaller than zero than we
would hope for and suggests a right skew in the data because the mean
(0) is greater than the median (-2.272) witnessing the residuals are
right skewed. This can also be seen in the maximum being much larger in
magnitude than the minimum.</span> </span>

fairly normally.</span> </span>
