After performing analyses on a set of data, Mrs. Schoeneck examined the scatter plot of the residual values for each analysis. Which scatter plot indicated the best linear fit for the data?

• A

• B

• C

• This residual plot indicates a good model.

• This residual plot indicates a poor model.

The residuals plot from a linear model is shown here.

The shape of the data indicates that the linear model is appropriate.

• TRUE

  because the plot is very linear

• FALSE

  because the plot is very linear

• TRUE

  because the slope is negative

• FALSE

  because the slope is negative
