You use a line best fit for a set of data to make a prediction about an unknown value. The correlation coefficient for your data set is -0.984 . How confident can you be that your predicted value will be reasonably close to the actual value?
A)I can’t be confident at all; this is about as close to a random guess as you can get.
***B)I can be a little confident; it might be close, or it might be way off.***
C)I can be very confident; it will be close, but it probably won’t be exact.
D)I can be certain that my predicted value will match the actual value exactly.
