The model output helps us determine if the relationship is statistically significant.

Model Coefficients
Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|)
(Intercept) 23.946 9.146 2.618 0.01
height 0.574 0.053 10.737 0.00

Insight: For every 1cm increase in height, the model predicts an average weight increase of 0.57 kg.
