Option C seems tempting, but I think making decisions without team input could lead to more disagreements later on.

I'm not entirely sure, but asking an external leader might not be the best approach. It could undermine the team's autonomy.

The coefficient of determination, or R-squared, is the metric I would review to determine how closely the data fits the regression line. This gives me a clear percentage of the variance in the dependent variable that is explained by the independent variable(s).
