Which type of prediction involves making a prediction between given data points on a scatter plot?
Interpolation
Which type of prediction tends to be less reliable than interpolations?
Extrapolation
Why do interpolations typically result in more accurate predictions?
Because they deal with data points
Why do extrapolations tend to be less accurate?
