LINEAR REGRESSION QUIZ

Q1. Which of the following equations is NOT an example of linear regression?

1. Y = -10 + 1.8 X1 – 2.3 X2 + error

2. Y = X1 + - error
3. Y= X1 – log X2 - + error

Correct Answer

Q2. In a certain regression problem, the following values are estimated.

SSR: Sum of Squares Regression = 200

SSE: Sum of Squares Errors = 50

What is the value of The Coefficient of determination?

Correct Answer

Q3. Consider two alternative models:

Model 1: EP~T+V+AP+RH
Correct Answer

Q4. The values of the Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) start from 0 and there is no upper limit.

Q5. Which of the following is an assumption for linear regression?

Q6. All large cities are concerned about parking space and pollution due to the number of
private vehicles. A survey found the information provided below. Which of the predictor causes
the maximum change in the 'number of vehicles' (dependent variable) per unit increase?
Correct Answer

Q7. Market price (MP) of a house depends on its area (square feet) and age (years). From a
sample data, the regression equation is determined as

MP = 57.35 + 0.0177 * Area – 0.666 * Age

Two houses are on the market: A (area = 1682 sq feet, 20-year-old) and B (area = 1856 sq
feet, 22-year-old). Which of the following statements do you agree with?

Correct Answer
Q8. EP is regressed on all the predictors available and the regression output is given below.

R2 happens to be 0.93 for this model. Based on this information, which conclusions may be
drawn?

1. GT and ST may be removed from the model because p-values are high (greater than
5%)
2. AP needs to be removed from the model because the coefficient is a small negative
quantity
3. If GT and ST are removed from the regression equation, there will be no change in
the adjusted R2 value
4. If exhaust vacuum increases, hourly energy output also increases.

Correct Answer
Q9. To answer the below question, do the following:

1. Load the dataset ThreeCars.csv

2. Do not scale the data
3. Do not split the data
4. Make a Linear Regression model with 'Price' as the target variable

What is the value of R Squared?

Note: Please do not pre-process the data in any way before fitting the linear regression
model.

Correct Answer

Q10. To answer the below question, do the following:

1. Load the dataset ThreeCars.csv

2. Do not scale the data
3. Do not split the data
4. Make a Linear Regression model with 'Price' as the target variable

What is the value of Price for these input parameters?

Note: Please do not pre-process the data in any way before fitting the linear regression model.
