Question:
A study was conducted attempting to relate home ownership to family income. Twenty households were selected and family income was estimated, along with information concerning home ownership ( \(y=1\) indicates yes and \(y=0\) indicates no). The data are shown below.
a. Fit a logistic regression model to the response variable \(y\). Use a simple linear regression model as the structure for the linear predictor.
b. Does the model deviance indicate that the logistic regression model from part a is adequate?
c. Provide an interpretation of the parameter \(\beta_{1}\) in this model.
d. Expand the linear predictor to include a quadratic term in income. Is there any evidence that this quadratic term is required in the model?
