If I have two Quantities and two Unit Prices, is the a formula that will forecast another qty?

Qty 100 = $25.00
Qty 500 = 10.50

Is there a formula that would forecast Qty 300 or any other quantity I enter that is between 100 and 500 (Using a straight line)?

Thanks

=FORECAST(A1,{25,10.5},{100,500})

where A1 has the value of "any other quantity" (e.g. 300).
