Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The information provided does not give us any specific numerical values for the y-intercept, but it does give us a clue in the format of the given code. The last part of the code, "TB6982_00", suggests that this may be a regression output from a statistical software package, possibly including the name of the software (e.g. "SPSS" or "Stata") and the model number or output identifier. Without more information about the specific output or the context of the data, we cannot say for certain what the y-intercept is. However, answer choice C is the only option that could plausibly represent a y-intercept value, while the other choices seem arbitrary or incompatible with the given information. Therefore, we can only choose answer choice C as the best possible option.
