T
The data point for x = 1 is above the line of best fit.
T
The residual value for x = 3 should be a positive number because the data point is above the line of best fit.
F
Fiona made a subtraction error when she computed the residual value for x = 4.
T
The residual value for x = 2 should be a positive number because the given point is above the line of best fit.
T
The residual value for x = 3 is negative because the given point is below the line of best fit.
