Exam 10: Regression Analysis: Estimating Relationships

A regression analysis between weight (Y in pounds)and height (X in inches)resulted in the following least squares line: = 140 + 5X.This implies that if the height is increased by 1 inch,the weight is expected to increase on average by 5 pounds.
