I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The best fit line minimizes the distance from the points to the line. A line of best fit (or "trend" line) is a straight line that bestrepresents the data on a scatter plot. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Answer: C. minimizes the distance from the points to the line.

Explanation:

A line of best fit is a straight line that best shown the data on a scatter plot. It may passes through  all of the points or none of the points or some of the data points.

On scatter plot the set of points that may or may not looked to be arranged along any line.

If a linear pattern is appeared, it become possible to plot a line of best fit that minimizes the distance of those points from that line so that it helps us to forecast the values that are not displayed on the scatter-plot.
