The Model $\tilde { y } = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } x _ { 1 } + \beta _ { 2 } x _ { 2 }$

True/False

The model $\tilde { y } = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } x _ { 1 } + \beta _ { 2 } x _ { 2 }$ is used whenever the statistician believes that,on average,y is linearly related to x₁ and x₂ and the predictor variables do not interact.
