Assignment-Based Subjective Questions

The document contains assignment-based and general subjective questions related to linear regression analysis. The assignment-based questions ask about inferring the effect of categorical variables, the purpose of drop_first=True in dummy variable creation, identifying the highest correlated numerical variable, validating linear regression model assumptions, and identifying the top features. The general questions ask about explaining linear regression, Anscombe's quartet, Pearson's R, scaling methods, reasons for infinite VIF values, and the use of Q-Q plots.
