Answer :
The linear relationship between two variables exhibits all the characteristics expect the description of the residual given in the option.
Recall :
y = a + bx
Where ;
y = response variable ; x = explanatory variable
a = intercept ; b = slope
Evaluating the options given:
- Linear relationships can be expressed in the form y = a + bx
- The value of y when x = 0 gives the intercept value of the relationship.
- b represents the slope
- Linear relationship yield a straight points plot on a graph
- The residual is usually random and not U - shaped. (Not true)
