Which one of the following statements describes the results of the hypothesis test for the overall regression model using α = 0.05?
A)Because the p- value is greater than alpha, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variables.
B)Because the p- value is less than alpha, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variables.
C)Because the p- value is less than alpha, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variables.
D)Because the p- value is greater than alpha, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variables.

When the p-value is less than alpha (α = 0.05), it indicates that the observed data are unlikely under the null hypothesis. Therefore, we reject the null hypothesis, suggesting there is a statistically significant relationship between the dependent and independent variables.
