A researcher conducted a regression analysis to predict a person’s interest in politics (Y) based on how often a person per week reads news articles (X). Political interest was measured using a scale ranging from 1 (‘not at all interested’) to 10 (‘very interested’). The formula associated with the regression line is shown below.
What can you say about the causality between X and Y?
