Predicting House Prices

Objective: Use Simple Linear Regression to predict house prices based on their size
Database: https://www.kaggle.com/c/boston-housing.
Tasks:
1. Load and explore the dataset.
2. Create a scatter plot to visualize the relationship between house size and price.
3. Implement Simple Linear Regression to predict prices.
4. Evaluate the model's performance using R² and Mean Squared Error (MSE).

Evaluation of performance using R² and Mean Squared Error (MSE).

The Simple Linear Regression model for predicting house prices was evaluated using MSE and
R². The MSE was 36.36, indicating the average squared error in predictions. The R² score of
0.596 shows that 59.6% of the variance in house prices is explained by the number of rooms per
dwelling. The slope of 8.58 indicates an increase in house price by 8.58 units per additional
room. While the model shows a moderate fit, including more features could improve accuracy.
