Multiple Linear Regression; Terms in X

I would like to ask why in the carsmall example X has the extra term x1.*x2, like this:
X = [ones(size(x1)) x1 x2 x1.*x2];
Running b = regress(y,X) returns
b = 4×1
60.7104
-0.0102
-0.1882
0.0000
which means that eitherway the last term plays no role.
Thanks :)

It is a bilinear fit so the regression is attempting to find the optimal b vector that fits a two-input function F of X and Y:
YFIT = b(1) + b(2)*X1FIT + b(3)*X2FIT + b(4)*X1FIT.*X2FIT;
Hence, the ones in the first column of X in your example since that is the constant. This technique can also be used to fit to polynomial functions and other nonlinear functions as long as the problem is linear in the coefficients you solve for.
