You are fitting a polynomial to data points. The degree controls how flexible the curve is — more degrees means more wiggles.

Balancing between the extremes…

What this means

A model that’s too simple can’t capture the real pattern (underfitting). A model that’s too complex memorizes the training data including its noise (overfitting). The art is finding the sweet spot in between — where the model learns the pattern without memorizing noise. This is the bias-variance tradeoff.
