I can’t see the image you referenced. Could you upload the scatterplot image (mc002-1.jpg) or list the coordinates of points P, Q, R, S, and T?
If you want to check yourself, here are quick ways to decide which pair the best-fit line passes through:
1. Visually: draw the best-fit (trend) line through the cloud of points so that roughly equal numbers of points lie above and below it. See which labeled points lie exactly on that line.
2. Using coordinates: for each answer choice (pair of points), compute the equation of the line through those two points (slope and intercept). Check whether that line is a good fit to the data (points evenly distributed about it) or whether other points also lie exactly on it. The correct pair will be two labeled points that the trend line actually goes through.
If you upload the image or give the coordinates I’ll identify the correct pair.
