Normality and Equal Variance

Let's learn about normality and equal variance by using plots.

We'll cover the following

Normality

Approximate normality can be judged using a quantile-quantile plot (Q-Q plot). This type of plot graphs the quantiles of the distribution of the residuals versus the quantiles of a random sample of normally distributed numbers. This is, so the residuals fall around a straight line when they match the model.
