I think these methods should be named "setData." They have a different

observations that have previously been added. If there are no

Yes - It makes sense to be consistent wrt to SimpleRegression. The
addData was left to mirror as much as possible the simple case but it is
true that the effect is different.
Alternatively, an even more expression name could be "newData" (and
"newX/YSampleData" correspondingly in the abstract method) so it's clear
that the user is resetting previously set data.
Another alternative is to introduce a clear() method.
My personal preference would probably be for "newData" but any of the 3
options is fine.
Cheers
