    Option D (Yes. The model is a good fit because the residual plot does not have a random pattern).

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First of all, insert all the data in Microsoft Excel. Make sure that the values of X are in the ascending order. Then, make the scatter plot of the data with the line of best fit from the Insert option. The graph shows that there is a positive relation between x and y. Most of the actual values of y lie very close to the line. A very few observations are a little further from the line of best fit. Therefore, the model is a good fit because the residual plot does not have a random pattern. Option D is the correct answer!
