When will point (𝑥¯$\bar{x}$,𝑦¯ $\bar{y}$) not go through the regression line?

It is understood that the estimated OLSordinary least squares (OLS) regression line will pass through the average x$x$ and y$y$, but if there is no intercept it will no longer pass through (𝑥¯$\bar{x}$,𝑦¯ $\bar{y}$). May I know what is the explanation for that?

When will point (𝑥¯,𝑦¯) not go through the regression line?

It is understood that the estimated OLS regression line will pass through the average x and y, but if there is no intercept it will no longer pass through (𝑥¯,𝑦¯). May I know what is the explanation for that?
