When and how to use power, logorithmic, and other transformations to linearize the data so that simple linear regression can be used to model the data

Important cases where the computational definition of R2 can yield negative values, depending on the definition used, arise where the predictions which are being compared to the corresponding outcomes have not been derived from a model-fitting procedure using those data, and where linear regression is conducted without including an intercept.
