What is a residual plot?

A residual plot is a graph that shows the residual values on the y-axis and fitted values on the x-axis. The aim of a residual plot is to check if the residual are consistent with random error.  When the residuals center on zero, it means that the model’s predictions are correct on average. If this is not the case, the model's predictions are not correct.
