Analysts at a start-up company are analyzing 35 months of sales data. They partition the data (the first 20 observations are assigned to the training set; the most recent 15 months are in the test set). The only independent variable is T (month number, ranging from 1 to 35). Five models (polynomials of order 1-5) are fit to the data. The first order is just the linear model; the 2nd order polynomial is the quadratic model; order 3 is the cubic model, etc. In each case the model is fit on the training data, and scored on both the training and test data sets. The results are below. Based on this output, which is the best predictive model?
