==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
The [[y-intercept]] is where the [[Line of Best Fit|line]] on a [[Scatter Graph|scatter graph]] meets the [[y-axis]].
==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
The [[y-intercept]] is where the [[Line of Best Fit|line]] on a [[Scatter Graph|scatter graph]] meets the [[y-axis]].
===About the y-intercept===
: If an [[experiment]] produces a [[Scatter Graph|scatter graph]] with a [[y-intercept]] but the relationship is supposed to be [[Directly Proportional|directly proportional]] then the [[y-intercept]] indicates the amount of [[Systematic Error|systematic error]] in the [[experiment]].
