The plot of residuals versus fitted values indicates that there is a clear pattern in the spread of the residuals, with the spread increasing as the fitted values increase. This violates the equal spread condition, indicating that the model may not be appropriate for the data. The nearly normal condition, linearity condition, and quantitative variables condition cannot be determined from this plot alone.
