# Can I conclude I have outliers when no coefficients are significant but f-test is significant? [duplicate]

Can I conclude I have outliers when no coefficients are significant but f-test is significant in the linear regression?

 Call:
lm(formula = co[, 12] ~ co[, 2] + co[, 3] + co[, 5] +
co[, 7] + co[, 8] + co[, 9] + co[, 11] + co[, 2] *
co[, 11])

Residuals:
Min      1Q  Median      3Q     Max
-5.0542 -1.6286 -0.2886  1.1572 24.6327

Coefficients:

co[, 3]            -0.1776742  0.8922504  -0.199    0.843
co[, 5]            -0.0507871  0.2318475  -0.219    0.827
co[, 7]            -0.0415144  0.0633719  -0.655    0.514

co[, 9]            -1.0555060  7.6677272  -0.138    0.891
co[, 11]           -0.4332281  1.4533123  -0.298    0.766
co[, 2]:co[, 11]  0.1683719  0.1859764   0.905    0.368

Residual standard error: 3.74 on 92 degrees of freedom
Multiple R-squared:  0.1731,    Adjusted R-squared:  0.1011
F-statistic: 2.407 on 8 and 92 DF,  p-value: 0.02095


Then the VIF test to check multicolinearity shows below:

            co[, 2]            co[, 3]            co[, 5]
131.188424             1.264675             1.684113
co[, 7]            co[, 8]            co[, 9]
1.638692             1.356281             1.145669
co[, 11]            co[, 2]:co[, 11]
49.944243           180.188574

• I think this could happen if you have a highly significant constant term but no relationship with any of the predictor variables. – Michael R. Chernick May 5 '17 at 23:58
• Actually not even the constant term is significant – Eric May 5 '17 at 23:59
• Can you show me an example with a significant F value and no significant relationship between the dependent variable and the regressors? – Michael R. Chernick May 6 '17 at 0:03
• Please check above now. – Eric May 6 '17 at 0:06
• I would suspect (multi)collinearity. When the predictor variables have linear relationships with one another, the individual standard errors are inflated, but the overall model fit can still be strong. – Matt Tyers May 6 '17 at 0:17
