Question

In general, a larger R squared tends to suggest that:_______.

a. the estimated sample regression function explains a greater percentage of the total variation in y
b. the estimated sample regression function is more accurate
c. the estimated sample regression function explains a greater percentage of the explained variation in y
d. the estimated slope coefficient is more likely to equal the population slope coefficient

Answer 1

c. the estimated sample regression function explains a greater percentage of the explained variation in y

Step-by-step explanation:

The above is the reason showing the direct correlation between the sample regression and the R Square value.
