  1. Identify which one is response variable, and fit a simple regression line, assuming that the relationship between them is linear.
  2. Interpret the regression coefficient with reference to your problem.
  3. Obtain coefficient of determination, and interpret this.
  4. Based on the fitted model in (a), predict the power consumption for an ambient temperature of 65^0F.
A worked answer is on its wayMeanwhile, read the Statistics I notes for this topic.
