The numbers of working-age civilians (in millions) that were not involved in the labor force from 1995 to 2005 are given by the following ordered pairs.
(1995, 66.2) (1996, 66.6) (1997, 66.7)
(1998, 67.5) (1999, 68.3) (2000, 70.2)
(2001, 71.4) (2002, 72.6) (2003, 74.6)
(2004, 76.0) (2005, 76.9)
A linear model that approximates the data is y = 1.2t + 59.0, 5 t 15, where y is the number of civilians (in millions) and t = 5 represents 1995.

Plot the actual data with the model. How closely does the model represent the data?
