The selection of the best model based on the results that fulfill the characteristic of no serial correlation, high goodness of fit, less p-value, and no existence of multicollinearity. According to those characteristic, variable of the fertility rate and the life expectancy should be dropped. Log transformation should be performed towards variable of the mortality rate in order to increase their normality characteristic.
