To find the sum of the absolute deviations for the line \( m = 0.15x + 3 \), you'll need to calculate the absolute deviations for each data point from the predicted values given by the line.

The absolute deviation for each data point \((x_i, y_i)\) is computed as:

\[
\text{Absolute deviation} = |y_i - (0.15x_i + 3)|
\]

You need the specific data points from the table to compute this sum. If you provide the data points \((x_i, y_i)\), I can help you calculate the sum of the absolute deviations. Without the data, it's not possible to determine the answer from the options given.
