The F value in the ANOVA table should be compared to the critical F value to determine if the overall regression model is statistically significant. Without knowing the critical F value, we cannot say for sure if the observed F value is significant. However, based solely on the given options, the closest choice to a significant F value (with a significance level of 0.05) is A (17.50).
