Glory Ggplot Linear Regression

With ggplot2 we can add regression line using geom_smooth function as another layer to scatter plot.

You can use geom_smooth with method lm. Figure 2 shows our updated plot. To add a regression line on a scatter plot the function geom_smooth is used in combination with the argument method lm.

Ggp Add regression line geom_smooth method lm formula y x Figure 2. The main difference is that a regression line is a straight line that represents the relationship between the x and y variable while a LOESS line is. Since linear regression essentially fits a line to a set of points it can also be readily visualized.

This post focuses on how to do that in R using the ggplot2 package.
