About the Regression dialog box

Input Y Range

Enter the reference for the range of dependent data. The range must consist of a single column of data.

Input X Range

Enter the reference for the range of independent data. Microsoft Excel orders independent variables from this range in ascending order from left to right. The maximum number of independent variables is 16.

Labels

Select if the first row or column of your input range or ranges contains labels. Clear if your input has no labels; Excel generates appropriate data labels for the output table.

Confidence Level

Constant is Zero

Select to force the regression line to pass through the origin.
