Sir can you tell why we use linear data in linear regression in simple words
Linear regression
Hey @satwik.bansal1990, it’s not that we use linear regression for linear data. Linear regression is an algorithm that is capable of modelling a linear relationship between two variables. Linear regression works best for linear data and hence we say that linear regression can be used to predict linear data.
In simplest words I can say :
Linear regression is a linear model, e.g. a model that assumes a linear relationship between the input variables (x) and the single output variable (y). More specifically, that y can be calculated from a linear combination of the input variables (x).
I hope this makes sense to you !
