An equation was created for the line of best fit from actual enrollment data. It was used to predict the dance studio enrollment values shown in the table below:

Enrollment

February
March
April

Actual
500
400
550

650
650
600
450
Residual
90
−50
−100
−100
150
−50
Analyze the data. Determine whether the equation that produced the predicted values represents a good line of best fit. (1 point)

Group of answer choices
No, the equation is not a good fit because the sum of the residuals is a large number.

No, the equation is not a good fit because the residuals are all far from zero.

Yes, the equation is a good fit because the residuals are not all far from zero.

Yes, the equation is a good fit because the sum of the residuals is a small number.
