Explanation / Answer

Correct Answer is a- If both main effects are not significant, disregard the interaction effect since it will be misleading.

The reason is that in ANOVA, it may be possible that main effects may not be significant but the interaction effect may be significant which should not be disregarded.

There are times when any two independent variables interact and then the interactive effects cast an influence on the dependent variable, in such a scenario, the in depth analysis and interpretation of this interactive effect is important. It may provide certain important insights about the variables under study.
