Question

When using the leasts-quares line for prediction, are results more reliable for extrapolation or interpolation? Interpolation, because we are predicting from data outside the range used to create the least-squares line Extrapolation, because we are predicting from data in the range used to create the east-squares line Extrapolation, because we are predicting from data outside the range used to create the east-squares line Interpolation, because we are predicting from data in the range used to create the least- squares line.

Explanation / Answer
