A local grocery store wants to predict the daily sales in dollars. The manager believes that the amount of newspaper advertising significantly affects the store sales. The manager randomly selects 7 days of data consisting of daily grocery store sales (in thousands of dollars) and advertising expenditures (in thousands of dollars). The Excel/Mega-Stat output given below summarizes the results of fitting a simple linear regression model using this data.
