Correlation requires clearly identified explanatory and response variables.

1

Regression requires clearly identified explanatory and response variables.

1

Scatterplots require that both variables be quantitative.

1

Every LSRL will pass through the coordinate point (mean of x, mean of y).

1

Correlation changes as units of the variables change.

1

The LSRL minimizes the distances between the actual response variable values and the predicted values.

1

Switching the explanatory and response variables will NOT change the least-squares regression line.

1

The slope of the line is very senstive to outliers with large residuals.

1

The value of the coefficient of determination that is close to 1 does NOT guarantee that the relationship between the variables is linear.

1

The value of the coefficient determination close to 1 show that the explanatory variable is the cause of the response variable.

1

The x variable is known as the response variable.

1

The strongest correlation is equal to only 1.
