Dec 7, 2014 at 10:53 comment added Emrah Dolgunsöz Thanks a lot, so it seems i accomplished all assumptions for linear regression. This site is awesome!
Dec 7, 2014 at 1:58 comment added Nick Cox @gung has it right: heteroscedasticity. Show us the scatter plot too, but there is little to worry about in that plot in my view.

Dec 6, 2014 at 23:58 comment added Zachary Blumenfeld Note that the existence of Heteroscedacity will not effect the coefficient estimates in the regression but rather only the standard errors of the coefficients. So your estimates from a linear regression will be the same regardless of adjustment. I suppose I can see a "football" like shape to the residual plot which can be a mark of heteroscedacity in certain data. I am not familiar with SPSS but most statistical packages offer a "robust" option in regression which adjusts for heteroscedacity in standard error.
Dec 6, 2014 at 22:26 comment added Emrah Dolgunsöz So as i have no heteroscasticity, cant i make linear regression?
Dec 6, 2014 at 22:09 comment added gung - Reinstate Monica I don't really see a triangle here. What makes you think you have heteroscedasticity? The predicted values seem to come in regular intervals / at discrete locations, do you know why that is? Were the original data grouped at fixed intervals on X?
