| Oct 29, 2016 at 17:08 | comment | added | Jill Clover | @Philip The philosophy of regression analysis divides the measured data into two parts: the systematic part and the random part. For example, you car travelled at 55 miles/hour for 2 hours. 112(The measured distance) = 55*2 + 2(random error). | |
| Oct 29, 2016 at 17:05 | comment | added | Jill Clover | @Philip Do you know what is measurement error? Can you give an example of measurement error? | |

| Oct 29, 2016 at 15:36 | comment | added | Philip | @xan I'm asking why the line is informative when the data doesn't fall along the line. | |
| Oct 29, 2016 at 15:35 | comment | added | xan | Are you asking, why squared residuals is more informative than some other measure such as absolute values or 4th powers? Or are you asking why is a line informative even when the data doesn't fall along the line? | |
