In the linear simple regression model, If R^2=0 does it necessarily mean that the estimate of B1 equal 0? Can you explained this please.
R^2 is known as the coefficient of determination or, more
precisely, the coefficient of multiple determination for multiple
regression. It is used to measure the percentage of variation in
the dependent variable that can be explained due to the multiple
linear regression. It measures how much close the data are to the
fitted regression model.
If R^2 = 0, it only means that 0% of the variation of the dependent
variable can be explained due to the linear regression model that
has been fitted. The regression coefficient B1 (of the independent
variable) is not equal = 0, but it cannot explain any of the
variation of the dependent variable.
