Linear regression is a statistical technique for finding the relationship between a variable (Y) and (X)
It aims to find the best-fitting line.
The general form of a simple linear regression equation:
Y=b0+b1X+ε
Where:
- Y is a variable (the one we want to predict).
- X is a variable (the one we use to make predictions).
- is the intercept, which represents the predicted value of when is zero.
- is the slope, which represents the change in for a one-unit change in .
- represents the error term.
