In machine learning, an algorithm (or learning algorithm) is said to be unstable if a small change in training data cause the large change in the learned classifiers. True or False: Bagging of unstable classifiers is a good idea

• We have been given a dataset with n records in which we have input attribute as x and output attribute as y. Suppose we use a linear regression method to model this data. To test our linear regressor, we split the data in training set and test set randomly. Now we increase the training set size gradually. As the training set size increases, What do you expect will happen with the mean training error?
