How is it that if you have a set of data, x1,y1....xn,yn with a known linear relationship between x & y (y = mx + c), and the best straight line fit MUST go through xbar,ybar (xbar average of all x values, ybar is average of all y values).
is the elastic band theory somewhat true? like being close to a man then leaving him alone for a bit, allowing him to "spring back" I have tried it many times and it works pretty well. What should i do?
If it works well for you, keep doing it. Do what makes you happy.

I'd love to hear more about the elastic band theory. Please tell me more.
