-Find the least squares prediction equation for the model yt=β0+β1t+εy _ { t } = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } t + \varepsilon .


A) y^t=74.21.9165t\hat { y } _ { t } = - 74.2 - 1.9165 \mathrm { t }
B) y^t=1.916574.2t\hat { y } _ { \mathrm { t } } = 1.9165 - 74.2 \mathrm { t }
C) y^t=74.21.9165t\hat { y } _ { t } = 74.2 - 1.9165 \mathrm { t }
D) y^t=74.2+1.9165t\hat { y } _ { \mathrm { t } } = 74.2 + 1.9165 \mathrm { t }
