The general idea is, if you see the points pretty evenly scattered or randomly scattered above and below this line, you don't really discern any trend here, then a line is probably a good model for the data. But if you do see some type of trend, if the residuals had an upward trend like this, or if they were curving up and then curving down, or they had a downward trend, then you might say, hey, this line isn't a good fit, and maybe we would have to do a nonlinear model. What are some examples of other residual plots? And let's try to analyze them a bit. So right here you have a regression line and its corresponding residual plot. And once again, you see here, the residual is slightly positive. The actual is slightly above the line, and you see it right over there, it's slightly positive.
