Totally agree, -1.0415 makes sense here!

I vaguely remember that the logit for the reference category is often not explicitly listed in the output. I wonder if that means I should be looking for a negative value like -1.0415 instead.

If Large is the reference level, then I believe the logit for that category should be the intercept. I think it might be around 0.0819, but I need to double-check my notes.

I remember that when using reference cell coding, the reference level's logit is usually set to zero, but I'm not completely sure how that affects the calculation here.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to interpret logits for different categories. I feel like the logit for large wrist size might be one of the negative values, but I can't recall exactly.

I'm a little confused on this one. I know the invoice date is part of the header, but I'm not sure about the other options. I'll have to make an educated guess.

I feel like option A is misleading; I thought AWSR used more than just IP addresses for differentiating deployments.

This is a tricky one. I'm not super familiar with Azure Cosmos DB, so I'll have to rely on my general troubleshooting skills. I'm going to eliminate the options that seem unrelated to the problem, and then carefully consider the remaining ones to pick the best solution.
