Answer to Question 1

The statement is false because it is possible to represent a three variable relationship in a two dimensional graph. To do so, start by focusing on two of the variables. Assume that the third variable does not change (the ceteris paribus assumption) and then graph the relationship between the two variables. The graph shows how these two variables are related when the third variable does not change. When the third variable does change, then the entire relationship between the two graphed variables changes. In other words, the line showing the relationship between the two graphed variables shifts so that it becomes an entirely new line. The shift in the line shows how the third variable influences the other two.
