I want to plot regression lines with different intercepts but with the same slope.
With the following ggplot2
code, I can plot regression lines with different intercepts and different slopes. But could not figured out how to draw regression lines with different different intercepts but the same slopes.
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(data=df3, mapping=aes(x=Income, y=Consumption, color=Gender)) + geom_point() +
geom_smooth(data=df3, method = "lm", se=FALSE, mapping=aes(x=Income, y=Consumption))
Consumption <- c(51, 52, 53, 54, 56, 57, 55, 56, 58, 59, 62, 63)
Gender <- gl(n = 2, k = 6, length = 2*6, labels = c("Male", "Female"), ordered = FALSE)
Income <- rep(x=c(80, 90, 100), each=2)
df3 <- data.frame(Consumption, Gender, Income)
df3
# Regression with same slope but different intercepts for each Gender
fm1 <- lm(formula=Consumption~Gender+Income, data=df3)
summary(fm1)
Call:
lm(formula = Consumption ~ Gender + Income, data = df3)
Residuals:
Min 1Q Median 3Q Max
-0.8333 -0.8333 0.1667 0.1667 1.1667
Coefficients:

Residual standard error: 0.7935 on 9 degrees of freedom
Multiple R-squared: 0.9629, Adjusted R-squared: 0.9546
F-statistic: 116.7 on 2 and 9 DF, p-value: 3.657e-07
Why don't you calculate the regression outside of ggplot with the results from lm
:
# Regression with same slope but different intercepts for each Gender
fm1 <- lm(formula=Consumption~Gender+Income, data=df3)
df3 = cbind(df3, pred = predict(fm1))
ggplot(data=df3, mapping=aes(x=Income, y=Consumption, color=Gender)) + geom_point() +
geom_line(mapping=aes(y=pred))
Produces same slope and different intercepts:
Technically as you see in your model there is not two different intercepts but an extra offset to the dummy variable GenderFemale
.
Edit: included predict
to simplify, thanks to @aosmith for suggesting.
