How to display a linear regression line along with the scatter plot

293 views (last 30 days)
I want to diplay a linear regression line (y=b+mx) along with the scattered plot, but I got stuck.
I need only to display the scatter points and the regression line (y=b+mx) without confidence bounds.
Moreover, the scatter points (dots) should remain the same, instead of x.
I wonder if I could get help.
Thank you in advance.
%Two data x and y
