Solution:

Given;

[tex]\begin{gathered} slope,b=4.404 \\ \\ \overline{x}=8.891,\overline{y}=5.519 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The y-intercept, a, can be calculated using the formula;

[tex]a=\overline{y}-b\overline{x}[/tex]

Thus;

[tex]\begin{gathered} a=5.519-4.404(8.891) \\ \\ a=-33.637 \end{gathered}[/tex]

CORRECT OPTION: C
