The income elasticity is —0.227 which is negative! Its standard error is (0.1999) and the t-statistic fortesting this income elasticity is zero is —1.135 which is insignificant with a p-value of 0.26. Hence, we cannot reject the null hypothesis. R2 = 0.0285 and s = 0.19085. This regression is not very useful. The income variable is not significant and the R2 indicates that the
regression explains only 2.8% of the variation in consumption. b. Plot of Residuals, and the 95% confidence interval for the predicted value.
