Question

What is a linear regression?

  • a) a model that outputs a continuous prediction as the sum of the values of a limited subset of the input features

  • b) a model that outputs a binary prediction based on a linear combination of the values of the input features

  • c) a model that outputs a continuous prediction as a weighted sum of the input features
