True/False

SCENARIO 14-17
Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy)and the independent variables are the age of the worker (Age)and a dummy variable for management position (Manager: 1 = yes,0 = no).
The results of the regression analysis are given below:


-Referring to Scenario 14-17,we can conclude definitively that,holding constant the effect of the other independent variables,there is not a difference in the mean number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff between a worker who is in a management position and one who is not at a 10% level of significance if all we have is the information of the 95% confidence interval estimate for the difference in the mean number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff between a worker who is in a management position and one who is not.
