2. Interpret the slope and y-intercept of the regression line within the context of
the given problem. (The y-intercept actually has a very interesting
interpretation.)
4. Last night, 10/15/2012, the San Diego Chargers were beating the Denver
Broncos 24-0 at halftime. Using the given model, by how much would we
predict the Chargers would win by?
5. The Chargers went on to lose that game by the score 24-35. What is the
value of this residual? Would you consider this data point an outlier if it was
added to the scatterplot? If so, describe the scatterplot and its influence on
the model.
