The Y-intercept (b₀)represents the A) predicted value of Y. B) change in estimated average Y per unit change in X. C) estimated average Y when X = 0. D) variation around the sample regression line.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Y-intercept represents the estimated average Y when X = 0, which is the point where the regression line intercepts the Y-axis. Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because the predicted value of Y will vary depending on the value of X. Option B is incorrect because it describes the slope, not the Y-intercept. Option D is also incorrect because it refers to the variability of data points around the regression line.
