This assumption is likely violated if there are large differences across subjects in the fraction of correct answers. ...

... The scatter plot looks fairly linear. The correlation coefficient is 0.9861. Since that is close to 1, the linear association is probably appropriate. The residual plot does not have a pattern. We can see from both the residual plot and the graph of the regression line that the line fits the scatter ...
