Correct response:
The slope of the linear model represents the average number of pages in each chapter of the book, so for every chapter of a book, there is an average of 1 page.
The y-intercept of the linear model represents the starting point of the graph, in this case, it would mean that the book starts with 1 page already written before any chapters.
