The line is an attempt to give a best estimate of all To review scatterplots, the data points. The line will not be a perfect estimation but rather a good approximation. This See Exercise 3.6. To line is usualy referred to as a "best fit line. " It is drawn to minimize the distance between it and review rate per 100,000, each data point. see Exercise 1.5. As with comelation, when the line rises from the lower left to the upper right, it indicates that the relationship is direct (le, positivel. When the line falls from the upper left to the lower right, it indicates that the relationship is inverse (ie. negative). If the dots on the scatterplot all fall exactly on a regression line, then the line does a perfect job approximationg the real data (the dots), If the dots are widely scattered, and far from the line, then the regression does a worse job of approximation the real data. Scattered dots indicate exceptions to the trend suggested by the regression line. In addition, scatterplots with widely scattered dots, without a clear pattern, will represent smaller correlations. The slope of a regression line tells you about the sind of the correlation between the two variables. The steeper the slope. the larger the correlation, A flat regression line means a correlation near zero. Note that the "participants" in the study that follows are states within the United States.

Compared with other states, does New Hampshire G.e., Not have a high or low child poverty rate? Explain. 3. Compared with other states, is New Hampshire near the top of near the bottom in its child mortality rate? Explain; 3. Do states with high poverty rates also have high mortality rates? If yes, give an example 4. Do states with low poverty rates also have low mortality rates? If yes, give an example. 5. Considering your amowers to Questions 3 and 4, does the relationship seem to be direct fue, positive) or inverse lie, negative)? Explain. 6. Rhode blind (RD) has one of the lowest child mortality rates. Does it also have one of the lowest poverty rates? Explain 7. Consider the four states at the far right of the scatterplot (.e, MS, LA. NM. and WV. In terms of child mortality rates, a child would have a better chance of surviving childhood in which of these four states? B. Is Alaska (AK) a good example of a state conforming to the overall trend indicated by the regression line or Is it an exception? Explain. New Hampshire has a child mortality rate of about 21 per 100,000. is this mortality rate more or less than 1 167 Explain. Questions for Discussion 10. if you were describing the results of this study to another student, would you describe the relationship between child mortality and poverty as very strong? Explain. 11. Do the results of this study clearly confirm the conclusion that child poverty causes child mortality? Explain. 12 There is considerable variation from state to state in child poverty rates, from about 8%% for NH to about 30%% for MS, LA. NM, and WV. Does this amount of variation surprise you? Explain. 13. Based on the data reported in this study, do you agree with the conclusion that the researchers stated as the last sentence of their research report? "in view of the association demonstrated here between child deprivation levels and mortality risk. failure to identify and ameliorate conditions in which families possess inadequate resources may have serious consequences for children's health and for their life chances."
