The scientist performs additional analyses and observes that the number of major earthquakes does appear to be decreasing but wonders whether the relationship is statistically significant. Based on the partial regression output below and a 5% significance level, is the year statistically significant in determining the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0?

The scientist performs additional analyses and observes that the number of major earthquakes does appear to be decreasing but wonders whether the relationship is statistically significant. Based on the partial regression output below and a 5% significance level, is the year statistically significant in determining the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0?

The correct answer to the following question will be "Yes". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The p-value isn't always specified below. Then using the confidence and standard deviation again for the coefficient of determination, it's the year statistically important. The 95% interval seems to be - 0.11 and - 0.04, which also doesn't encompass zero. It could, therefore, be concluded that perhaps the coefficient for such year is statistically significant.
