data = Table[{x, x^2 - 11 x + 24 + 6 RandomReal[]}, {x, 0, 10, .25}];

pltRng = {{0, 10}, 1.2 {Min[data[[All, 2]]], Max[data[[All, 2]]]}};

fit = Fit[data, {1, x, x^2}, x]

xmin = 4; xmax = 7;

fit2 = Fit[Select[data, xmin <= #[[1]] <= xmax &], {1, x, x^2}, x]

Plot[{fit, fit2}, {x, 0, 10},
 PlotStyle -> {Green, Blue},
 Epilog -> {Red, Point[data]},
 PlotRange -> pltRng]
