Practice Questions

Question 1

In a regression context, what does a confidence interval for the slope $\beta_1$ estimate?

Question 2

Which condition is most directly needed to use a $t$-interval for the slope in a linear regression model?

Question 3

A $95\%$ confidence interval for the slope is $\left(2.1, 5.4\right)$. What is the best interpretation?

Question 4

Which value is the point estimate used to build a confidence interval for the slope?

Question 5

If a $95\%$ confidence interval for the slope is $(-0.8, 1.6)$, what is the best conclusion about whether there is evidence of a linear relationship at the $\alpha = 0.05$ level?
