This only applies $$ \sqrt{1-r^2}(\sigma_y) $$ - On a least squared regression line, the 1 r.m.s error away will contain $2\sigma$ of the data, and it should loosely mirror a normal curve. - To approximate the R.M.S error for a scatter diagram, take a high value and a low value for a given $x$ coordinate, and divide by 4, because r.m.s error is within $2\sigma$ of either side of the line. +- 68% = $2\sigma$, 95% = $4\sigma$ --- # Terminology
