Hi,

The decision tree regression model is not necessarily a linear one - that is, it is not a straight line. In fact, you can think of it as sequence of many horizontal and vertical line segments. Therefore, it cannot be described with just two parameters - intercept and coefficient are used only with the linear regression model.

Hope this helps!
