CFA Practice Question
If SSR is equal to the sum of squares total, it means:
A. all the points lie on the regression line.
B. the coefficient of determination is zero.
C. the regression model is perfect.
Explanation: Yes the model captures all the observed variability.
Note about A: if all the points lie on the regression line, the dependent variable can be predicted with 100% accuracy by using the regression line, and SSE will be zero. However, the opposite is not necessarily true.
