From the attached diagram you can see that regression that best fits given data is quadratic (not linear).

  • option 1 is false, because it gives linear regression;
  • option 2 is true, it gives graph, similar to quadratic parabola;
  • options 3 and 4 are false, because graphs are decreasing.

Answer: correct choice is B.

The graph of the given values is required.

Option B is correct.

The points are

[tex](1,97)[tex]

[tex](2,168)[/tex]

[tex](3,259)[/tex]

[tex](4,375)[/tex]

Let us find if the points are in the form of a line by finding the slope.

[tex]\dfrac{168-97}{2-1}=71[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{259-168}{3-2}=91[/tex]

[tex]71\neq 91[/tex]

So, the function is not linear.

Therefore, A and C are incorrect.

Also the function is not decreasing so option D is also eliminated.

Hence, option B is correct.
