Linear Regression: Least Squares Criteria for Best Fit:
Explanation of best fit

http://mtsu32.mtsu.edu:11308/regression/level2/simplinreg/concept.htm
Interactive Exploration (graphical)
Play with the line to understand best fit!

Move the line and see the sum of the squared residuals change.
Move the line to make the sum of squared residuals as small as you can get it.
When the sum of squared residuals is minimized, that is the best fit line.
