  9. Source: http://www.studyworksonline.com, 8/13/03 Least-Squares Line The Least Squares Line is the line that minimizes the sum of the squares of the errors.

  10. Least-Squares Line We have qualitative ways of expressing how appropriate the linear model is like “a very appropriate model”, or “ a fairly appropriate model”, or “ an inappropriate model”. There is also a quantitative way to express the “goodness of fit” called the correlation coefficient, r. The correlation coefficient, r, measures the strength of the linear relationship between the two variables.
