Question 1·Easy·Two-Variable Data: Models and Scatterplots

A scatterplot shows the relationship between the distance from a Wi-Fi router, xx (in meters), and the download speed, yy (in megabits per second), for several locations in a building. A line of best fit for the data is given by

y^=3x+72\hat{y} = -3x + 72

Which choice best describes what the number 72 represents in this model?
