Solution

The correct statement among the options is:

c. a measure of the goodness of fit of your regression line.

R2, also known as the coefficient of determination, is a statistical measure that represents the proportion of the variance for a dependent variable that's explained by an independent variable or variables in a regression model. Therefore, it is a measure of the goodness of fit of the regression line to the data.
