True/False?: A best-fit line is created to model data comparing the gasoline consumed by a car (x) and the distance traveled in the car (y). The equation is y=24x−1. One possible explanation for the y-intercept being −1 is that cars that idle (sit still) also use some gas. So, while the model predicts that cars get 24 miles of travel per gallon of gas consumed, some gas is consumed just by a car running (not traveling).
