Detailed explanation-1: -y = mx + c is a linear equation and the variables x and y relate to coordinates on the line. When we input a value for x into the equation y = mx + c, we get a result for y . This means that x is an independent variable, and y is a dependent variable as it is determined by the value of x .
Detailed explanation-2: -y=mx+c is the equation of a straight line where m is the slope, c is a constant and. y is the y intercept (the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis).
Detailed explanation-3: -The y-intercept is used to describe the dependent variable when the independent variable equals zero.
Detailed explanation-4: -y=mx+c, where m is the slope of the line. In Positive Linear Regression, the value of m is positive. Negative Linear Regression-If the value of the dependent variable decreases with the increase in the value of the independent variable, then such Regression is said to be negative linear Regression.
