ANSWER:
Step 1 of 2
The figure shows a residual plot for the least-squares regression line based on data on the percent of high school graduates in each state who took the SAT and the states' mean SAT Math score in a recent year. We have to explain why the conditions for performing inference about the slope of the population regression line are not met.
