Answer» CORRECT answer is (c) Intra polation

For EXPLANATION I would say: Predicting y for a value of x that is within the interval of points that we SAW in the original DATA is called interpolation. Predicting y for a value of x that’s OUTSIDE the range of values we actually saw for x in the original data is called extrapolation.
