Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Simple linear regression is not a Time-Series method of forecasting. It is a method used for predicting the relationship between two variables, where one is the independent variable and the other is the dependent variable. In contrast, time-series methods are used for forecasting data that is collected over time, where the time variable is the independent variable. Moving Average, Exponential Smoothing, Seasonality Analysis, and Multiplicative/Additive Decomposition are all Time-Series methods of forecasting.
