I would consider adding some interpretive element to explain what that means and why it might have been used. | |

If so, the comment about confidence intervals is a bit off base. Also, who is the end user? If the end users are statisticians or economists, then sure, the equation may be fine, but many people are not all that fond of equations. | |

An end user should presumably want to know what it means and can it be trusted Does it match sensible limiting behaviour? Showing $R$, $R^2$ and adjusted $R^2$ looks like overkill to me. A "plot of house area to housing prices" is weird wording. If English is not your first language and you're presenting in English, get advice on that too. | |
