Abstract: We use correlation to check whether two variables have a linear relationship, and the correlation coefficient to check the strength of the relationship. Regression is more about building a mathematical model which describes the relationship between one or more predictors and a single response variable. This chapter presents a graph that shows the data points collected as tyre pressure is varied and then fuel efficiency is measured. For Single Predictor Regression Minitab will work with the user to try and fit an equation. The chapter then presents exercises and examples using Minitab for illustrating the concept of correlation and regression. Controlled Vocabulary Terms correlation; regression
