What is Linear Regression? Linear Regression is a supervised machine learning algorithm where the predicted output is continuous and has a constant slope. It’s used to predict values within a continuous range, (e.g. sales, price) rather than trying to classify them into categories (e.g. cat, dog). There are two main types: Simple regression Simple linear regression uses traditional slope-intercept form, where  m  and  c  are the variables our algorithm will try to “learn” to produce the most accurate predictions.  x  represents our input data and  y represents our prediction.                                                       y = mx + c Multivariable regression A more complex, multi-v...
