Question

which statements are true about the line of best fit for the data in the scatter plot? it crosses the y - axis at about (0, 28). its slope is about - 5. its slope is about 5. it crosses the y - axis at about (0, 33). it has a positive slope. it has a negative slope.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze y - intercept

Visually estimate where the line of best - fit crosses the y - axis from the scatter - plot.

Step2: Analyze slope

Determine if the line is increasing (positive slope) or decreasing (negative slope) and estimate its value.

Answer:

It crosses the y - axis at about (0, 28). Its slope is about 5. It has a positive slope.
