The standard deviation 𝜎𝜀 measures the spread of errors around the population regression
line. The standard deviation of errors tells us how widely the errors and hence the values of 𝑦 are
spread for a given 𝑥.
However usually 𝜎𝜀 is unknown, in such cases it is estimated by 𝑠𝜀 which is the standard
deviation of errors for the sample data.

𝑠𝜀 = √

2) The following table gives an information on GPAs and starting salaries (rounded to the
nearest thousand dollars) of seven recent college graduates.
a) Find the least square line by choosing appropriate response and predictor variables
and comment it.
b) Construct a 95% confidence interval for regression parameter.
c) Test at 1% significance level, whether 𝛽 is different from zero.
d) Using the ANOVA at 1% level of significance, test whether the regression line fit
the data well.
