Details

Multiple bootstrap models are generated from the fitted values of the model, each with different random normal errors with standard error equal to the estimated residual standard error from the original model. These are plotted, and then overlaid by the QQ plot from the original data.

This plot can be used to assess the assumption of normality in the residuals for a linear regression model.
