statistics - a branch of applied mathematics concerned with the collection and interpretation of quantitative data and the use of probability theory to estimate population parameters
parametric statistic - any statistic computed by procedures that assume the data were drawn from a particular distribution
linear regression, rectilinear regression - the relation between variables when the regression equation is linear: e.g., y = ax + b
