I am given points in which I have to plot on a graph and draw a line of best fit.

Then I must answer the following question:
Since there are a number of straight lines that might fit this data, what mathematical test could you think of to determine what might be the "best fit" to the data.

I have no clue! what mathematical test can be used to determine line of best fit
