Answer 1

To create a scatter plot, draw a line of best fit, and interpret the slope and y-intercept in context, you need a statistical question that involves two quantitative variables. Among the options provided, the most suitable questions would be:

How tall are the students in your grade level at school? - This question can provide height data to create a scatter plot with relevant measurements (for example, height vs. age or height vs. another variable).
How is college student enrollment changing over the last century? - This question can provide quantitative data over time (enrollment numbers), allowing you to create a scatter plot that would show the trend over years.

The other questions don't provide the necessary quantitative data or relationships for a statistical analysis with a scatter plot:

Was your height greater than 60 cm before your last birthday? - This is a yes/no question and does not allow for a continuous variable analysis.
What percentage of families in Florida had a radio in 1930? - While this question provides percentage data, it only offers a single point in time, not a relationship between two variables.
What kind of car does your family drive? - This is a categorical question and does not involve quantitative data.
What is your favorite color? - Similarly, this is also a categorical question and does not lend itself to scatter plot analysis.

Thus, the most appropriate questions for your scatter plot would be the first and second ones listed.
