The concept of a regression line serves as a key instrument in statistical analysis, enabling one to forecast the value of a particular variable dependent on another. This is achieved via a technique known as "least squares." This method reduces the gap between the actual data points and the regression line, thereby enhancing the precision of the line. It's a widely used tool in predictions and analyzing trends.
