Compositions can play the role of dependent and independent variables in linear models. In both cases, the parameters of the linear models are again compositions of the same simplex as the data. Most methods for classical linear models have a close analog in these compositional linear models. This chapter addresses several questions on this subject. What are compositional linear models? How to visualize the dependence of compositions, already multivariable, with further external covariables? How to model and check such dependence with compositional linear models? What are the underlying assumptions? How can we check these assumptions? What is the compositional interpretation of the results? How to use linear models to provide statistical evidence with tests, confidence intervals, and predictive regions? How to visualize model results and model parameters? How to compare compositional linear models and how to find the most appropriate one?
