Consider the scatter plot shown. Which shows the line of best fit? Explain your reasoning.
A scatter plot is shown in the xy-plane. The values on the x-axis range from 0 to 9 in increments of 1 and the values on the y-axis range from 0 to 9 in increments of 1. Data points are scattered between 0 to 3 on the x-axis and 0 to 8.5 on the y-axis. Three lines labeled as Line 1, Line 2, and Line 3 are shown. Line 1 passes between the points such that most of the points are on the left of the line, Line 2 passes between the points such that the points are on both sides of the line, and Line 3 passes between the points such that most of the points are on the right of the line.

sounds like you just need to review what "best fit" means.
It's line 2. Line 1 goes way above most of the points and is most definitely not centered between the points, and line 3 has the same problem, but it's too far below the points, leaving tons above it.
