Plot interpretation
Help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Re: Plot interpretation
It shows fitted values vs residuals, likely from a gaussian linear model.
We see distinct lines, indicating that y is discrete (?), e.g. counts?
The lower border indicates that y has a lower bound (e.g. counts or positive only data.
The fan shape indicates a positive mean-variance relationship.
All three indicate that the gaussian linear model might be not a good representation.
A log-transformation of y could fix this.
I'd prefer a GLM with Gamma (for positive continuous y) or poisson / negative-binomial (depending on mean-variance-relationship) distribution. In both cases likely with a log-link function.
