Review the infographic “Linear Regression Analysis – An Example” that is attached with the following descriiption:
This image comprises three graphs that explain three types of linear regressions using a constant variable “Earnings” and three variables (“Savings,” “Expenses,” “Spending Habits”), one for each example. The three examples are shown as three tips from a wise economist on how you can save more money.
The first example shows a positive linear relationship between savings and earning indicating that savings should increase in proportion to earnings.
The second example shows a negative linear relationship between expenses and earnings indicating that one should not increase expenses if their earnings increase, else there are fewer savings.
The third example shows no linear relationship between variables such as spending habits and earnings. Your higher earnings do not necessarily make you a big spender. Similarly, you may not have substantial earnings, but you may still be a big spender. Alternatively, you may even be prudent and not be a big spender regardless of how much you may earn.
