Linear Interpolation

Linear interpolation provides a simple way to estimate unknown values between known data points

Why is linear interpolation generally less accurate for estimating values far from the known data points?

Because it uses polynomial curves of high degree that oscillate wildly Because it requires knowledge of values outside the known data range Because it assumes a straight-line relationship which may not hold over larger intervals
