Solution

The correct answer is b. at least one of the predictors is significant.

Here's why:

In a multiple regression model, the model-as-a-whole significance test (often an F-test) tests the null hypothesis that all the regression coefficients are equal to zero versus the alternative that at least one is not.

If the model-as-a-whole is significant, this means that the null hypothesis is rejected, and we conclude that at least one of the predictors is significantly associated with the outcome variable.

However, this does not tell us anything about which specific predictors are significant, or how many are. Each predictor's significance would need to be tested individually, usually with a t-test.

So, while the model-as-a-whole being significant means that at least one predictor is significant, it does not guarantee that all predictors are significant (option a), and it does not provide any information about whether predictors are significantly associated with each other (option d).

Option c is incorrect because the model-as-a-whole being significant does tell us that at least one predictor is significant.
