Managers of an outdoor coffee stand in Coast City are examing the relationship between (hot) coffee sales and daily temperature, hoping to be able to predict a day's total coffee sales from the maximum temperature that day. The bivariate data values for the coffee sales (denoted by, in dollars) and the maximum temperature (denoted by, in degrees Fahrenheit) for each of fifteen randomly selected days during the past year are given below. These data are plotted in the scatter plot in Figure 1.

Temperature,x (in degrees Fahrenheit) Coffee sales,y (in dollars) 63.1 1864.3 71.8 1697.2 52.1 2211.7 57.7 1953.0 55.5 1640.6 44.1 1818.9 46.1 2012.1 68.5 1748.2 73.0 1990.2 37.9 1944.7 40.3 2271.6 47.8 2147.5 83.5 1507.0 73.7 1986.5 77.3 1523.1
