You might consider the Predict.Plot and TkPredict functions in the
TeachingDemos package.  These help you explore multiple linear
regression models by plotting the "line" relating the response to one
of the predictors at given values of the other predictors.  These
lines can be combined in a single plot (Predict.Plot) or changed
interactively (TkPredict).  See the examples in the help page.
