Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correlation coefficient measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables, in this case, the dependent variable (Y) and the independent variable (X). The coefficient of determination (A) is related to the correlation coefficient and measures the proportion of the variation in the dependent variable that can be explained by the independent variable. The slope (C) represents the change in the dependent variable for each unit change in the independent variable. The standard error (D) measures the variability of the estimates of the coefficients in a regression model.
