What does polynomial regression allow you to model?
- Correlations
- Data distribution

- Relationships between variables
Polynomial regression allows modeling of non-linear relationships. Unlike linear regression that models relationships between variables as a straight line, polynomial regression models relationships as curves, better capturing relationships that change in direction at different levels of the independent variables.
