3. Model Fitting and Residual plots
a. Fit a linear model for affairs using all predictors. Call this model g. Show the coefficients and interpret the coefficient for childrenyes.
b. Obtain and show plots of the g-residuals against the fitted values. Does this plot reveal any abnormal patterns, if so why?
c. Obtain and show the boxplots of the g-residuals versus gender and children. Does the plot reveal any patterns?
d. Using the g-residuals, obtain and show the Normal QQ-Plot. Does the plot indicate the residuals are normal or not normal? Explain your answer.
