| Basic | The data is modelled using a straight line. | The probability of some obtained event is represented as a linear function of a combination of predictor variables. |
| Linear relationship between dependent and independent variables | Is required | Not required |
| The independent variable | Could be correlated with each other. (Specially in multiple linear regression) | Should not be correlated with each other (no multicollinearity exist). |
