Suppose that the true population regression (data generating process) is given by Y i = B 0 + B 1 X i +u i .

Suppose that the true population regression (data generating process) is given by Yi = B0 + B1Xi+ui. Further suppose that the population covariance between Xi and ui is equal to some negative value A, rather than zero:

COV(Xi ,ui)=A<0.

Derive the expression showing the bias of the OLS estimator for B1.

Discuss why this covariance might be non-zero (give an example).

Include a sketch that shows this result (negative bias).
