You are a data scientist creating a linear regression model.
You need to determine how closely the data fits the regression line.
Which metric should you review?
Coefficient of determination, often referred to as R2, represents the predictive power of the model as a value between 0 and 1. Zero means the model is random (explains nothing); 1 means there is a perfect fit. However, caution should be used in interpreting R2 values, as low values can be entirely normal and high values can be suspect.
