Perhaps Jack can point you to someone who can help.

1. State your research question in "NATURAL LANGUAGE" not

As you indicate, the model is LINEAR in the coefficients b0, b1, b2, b3
and in the 4-D space of y,x1,x2,x3(i.e., x1*x2) the function lies in a PLANE.
But in the 3-D space of y,x1,x2 the surface is TWISTED ( not in
a PLANE).
