ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
The figure shows a residual plot for the least-squares regression line based on comparison of the measurements on 100 defects made in the field with measurements of the same defects made in the laboratory. We have to explain why the conditions for performing inference about the slope of the population regression line are not met.
