(b) Use a calculator to find the linear function f based on least-squares regression that models the data. Graph y = f(x) and the data in the same viewing rectangle.

(c) In 2002 Newark International Airport had 29.0 million passengers. Assuming that this airport followed a trend similar to that of the five airports listed in the table, use f(x) to estimate the number of passengers at Newark International in 2006. Compare this result to the actual value of 36.7 million passengers.
