Answer: A

O The median-median regression line is a better prediction.

Explanation:

The given median-median line for a dataset is

y 1.133x+ 0.489

The least-squares regression line for the same dataset is

y = 1.068x0.731

The given point is (50,60).

Substitute x=50 in each given equation.

y = 1.133(50) + 0.489

57.139

y = 1.068(50) + 0.731 = 54.131

Since the value of median-median line at x=50 is near to 60 than the value of least-squares regression at x=50.

The median-median line regression line is a better prediction. Therefore the correct option is A.
