How do I choose the right regression type for my data?

Choosing the right regression type depends on the nature of your data and the relationship you want to model. Are you looking at a linear relationship or something more complex?

I have a dataset with a clear linear trend.

In that case, linear regression would be a good choice. It’s simple and effective for modeling linear relationships.

What if my data has multiple features?

If you have multiple features, you might want to consider multiple linear regression, which can handle multiple independent variables.

What about non-linear relationships?

For non-linear relationships, you could explore polynomial regression or other non-linear models like decision trees.
