In a linear regression with 1 independent variable, if X is always the same (let's call I am unlucky), but Y present different values for the same X, I still can find the coefficient of the straight line equation?

Linear regression with the same X value refers to a type of linear regression model where the independent variable (X) remains constant for all observations. This means that the relationship between the independent and dependent variables is a straight line with no variation in the X values.
This type of linear regression can be useful for identifying trends or patterns in data where the independent variable does not change. It can also be used to make predictions based on the relationship between the independent and dependent variables.
The assumptions for linear regression with the same X value are the same as those for traditional linear regression, including linearity, independence of errors, and homoscedasticity (constant variance) of residuals.
One of the main limitations of this type of linear regression is that it can only be used when the independent variable does not change. If there is any variation in the X values, this model will not accurately represent the relationship between the variables. Additionally, it may not be suitable for predicting outcomes outside of the range of the observed data.
To perform linear regression with the same X value, you will need to collect data with a constant independent variable and then use a statistical software or programming language to fit a line to the data. This will generate a regression equation that can be used for prediction or analysis.
