The sum of squares in the least squares method is defined as the sum of the squares of the residuals (the differences between the predicted values and the actual values). Option B has a term (413217bbc944) that is different from the other options, indicating that it corresponds to a different dataset with different residuals. This means that option B may have a different sum of squares compared to the other options, making it the correct answer.
