   If errors is higher than best fit value?

   Hi all.   
   Hope you're doing well.   
      
   I have one query regarding ERROR-ANALYSIS. I want to get your comment/s on   
   this.   
      
   Let's say we performed an experiment using some theoretical model and   
   observational data points. Our aim is to get the best fit values of   
   unknown parameters with their error using observations. Using some   
   statistical techniques i.e. least square fitting or chi-square or MCMC,   
   we got the best fit values and error for each parameter. Suppose the   
   error of parameters is higher than their best-fit values   
   i.e. [A=0.2+-1.5] here the best-fit value is 0.2 and error is 1.5.   
      
   In this scenario what could you conclude from this experiment? Please   
   put your comments and thoughts.   
      
   Thank you for your valuable response.   
      
      
   With Warm Regards!!!
