Hi Douglas. So you want to check for correlation or regression ? how many levels does "pre" have ? you could subset the variables you want to check correlation on, by the pre levels.
for example: Let's say pre has two levels: 1 and 2. then you can do: cor(y[pre == 1], x[pre == 1]) cor(y[pre == 2], x[pre == 2]) Also, If you want to go for regression, you can go to something like: summary(lm(y ~ x + pre)) But I suggest getting much more understanding of what linear regression is before using it's methods...
