@iGreen wouldnt it be a

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, it would. A fits the line better than any of the choices.

OpenStudy (friendzone):

thanks ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it wont

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, it would. The line of best fit is supposed to fit the scatterplot as best as it can. Option B cuts through it in half, it's supposed to be lined up with the direction of the dots. B does have a positive slope, but so does A, and A is lined up more with the scatterplot than B is. Good guess though.
