A scatter plot with a line is shown: Graph shows numbers from 0 to 10 at increments of 1 on the x axis and number s from 0 to 15 at increments of 1 on the y axis. Scatter plot shows ordered pairs 0, 1 and 1, 1 and 2, 3 and 3, 6 and 4, 6 and 5, 8 and 6, 9 and 7, 10 and 8, 12 and 9, 13 and 10, 15. A line joins ordered pairs 0, 0.5 and 10, 14.8. Which statement is most likely correct about the line? It can be a line of best fit because it is closest to most data points. It can be a line of best fit because it passes through all the data points. It cannot be a line of best fit because it does not pass through all the points. It cannot be a line of best fit because it does not pass through the first and last points.
