c.

observed values of the dependent variable and the estimated values of the dependent variable

d.

None of these answers is correct.

Explanation / Answer

observed values of the dependent variable and the estimated values of the dependent variable

this is why it is called minimizer of sum of squared residuals.

c.

observed values of the dependent variable and the estimated values of the dependent variable
