Here is a scatter plot that compares points per game to free throw attempts per game for basketball players in a tournament. The model, represented by y=4.413x+0.377, is graphed with the scatter plot. Here, x represents free throw attempts per game, and y represents points per game.

What does it mean for a point to be far above the line in this situation?

Answer:

Point above the line is an outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

If the point is above the given line then it is clear that it does not fit the best fit curve (which is in this case is the line represented by equation y=4.413x+0.377)  

Point above this line means that the point is an outlier which does not fit the curve.
