| Jul 8, 2022 at 13:44 | comment | added | whuber♦ | (1) The relationship between a binary variable and a continuous variable is always linear. (2) Because $R^2=r^2$ is a mathematical result and math doesn't care how you think of a variable, a fortiori the answer is yes. Thus, answers should focus on the remaining question (3). | |
