Correct option: A.
Very first and important assumption of linear regression is that it needs a relationship between independent and dependent variables.
and it is very basic of statistics, that dependent variable goes on y axis and independent on x axis.
hence it needs linear relationship between the variables x and y.

Let X and Y be continuous and independent random variables, both with uniform distribution (0,1). Find the functions of probability densities of (a) X + Y (b) X-Y (c) | X-Y |
Random variables X and Y are independent. the random variable X has density p(x) and Y is a discrete random variable having just two values: 1 with probability 1/3 and 2 with probability 2/3. Calculate the density of Z=X+Y.

Yes b. “Yes, if the R^2 is low" c. No d. “Yes, if the R^2 is high" Imperfect multicolinearity a. affects the standard...
Let X and Y be independent random variables. Random variable X has a discrete uniform distribution over the set {1, 3} and Y has a discrete uniform distribution over the set {1, 2, 3}. Let V = X + Y and W = X − Y . (a) Find the PMFs for V and W. (b) Find mV and (c) Find E[V |W >0].
The β 1 term indicates a. the Y value for a given value of X. b. the average change in Y for a unit change in X. c. the Y value when X equals zero. d. the change in observed X for a given change in Y. What does regression analysis attempt to establish? a. linearity in the relationship between independent variables b. a mathematical relationship between a dependent variable, for which future values will be forecast, and one or...

3. Suppose that X and Y are independent exponentially distributed random variables with parameter λ, and further suppose that U is a uniformly distributed random variable between 0 and 1 that is independent from X and Y. Calculate Pr(X<U< Y) and estimate numerically (based on a visual plot, for example) the value of λ that maximizes this probability.
