Is it always possible to do a linear best fit to a data set?

◦

Yes; the fact that all data are affected by random error makes them linear.


◦

Yes, but the fit may be meaningless if the data are not really linear.


◦

No; the data may not be linear to begin with.


◦

No; the\(\style{font-family:Times New Roman;}{r^2}\)value may be impossible to calculate.
