  1. Suppose that a 99% confidence interval for the slope parameter1in the simple linear regression model is given by (0.2,1.2) Which of the following statement is false?

(a)a point estimator of1is given byb1= 0.5

(b)if we repeatedly draw samples of the same size from the same linear regression model and construct the confidence interval by the same way, then 99% of the time, the confidence interval will contain 0.

(c)the confidence interval suggests that the independent variable and dependent variable are positively correlated among the samples and the correlation coefficientr1.

(d)the slope might be significant at 5% level
