Intercept and Coefficients in Decision Tree Regression
How can we find the intercept and coefficient of a regression equation using the decision tree regression model?

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!
