Questions come from the Bluebook question bank.

The scatterplot shows the relationship between two variables, x and y . A line of best fit for the data is also shown.

  • The scatterplot has 10 data points.
  • The data points are in a linear pattern trending up from left to right.
  • A line of best fit is shown:
    • The line of best fit slants up from left to right.
    • 6 points are above the line of best fit.
    • 4 points are below the line of best fit.
    • The line of best fit passes through the following approximate coordinates:
      • (0 comma 0.1)
      • (5 comma 5.1)

For how many of the 10 data points is the actual y-value greater than the y-value predicted by the line of best fit?
