A regression predicts weight from height.
The intercept -120 lb is best described as:
- A
The predicted weight when x = 60 inches
- B
The slope of the line
- Ccheck_circle
Not meaningful in context because height = 0 is far outside the data range
- D
The mean weight in the sample
Explanation
Extrapolating to x = 0 (zero inches tall) lies outside the observed range, so the intercept has no real-world meaning here.
