Explanation

In the most basic sense, regression refers to prediction of a numeric target. Linear regression attempts to establish a linear relationship between one or more independent variables and a numeric outcome, or dependent variable. You use this module to define a linear regression method, and then train a model using a labeled dataset. The trained model can then be used to make predictions. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/studio-module-reference/linear-
