This module guides learners through the essential steps involved in preparing, training, and evaluating a simple linear regression model in Python. It introduces the importance of understanding variable relationships through bivariate analysis, implements a base model for initial predictions, and interprets model output using prediction comparisons and evaluation metrics. By the end of this module, learners will be able to conduct a basic machine learning run and assess their model’s performance against real-world data.
