In order to derive the reciprocity relations, Onsager formulated a relation between thermal equilibrium fluctuations and relaxation widely known as regression hypothesis. It is shown in the present work how such relation can be extended to finite and isolated classical systems. This extension is derived from the fluctuation-dissipation theorem for the microcanonical ensemble. The results are exemplified with a nonintegrable system in order to motivate possible applications to dynamical systems and statistical mechanics of finite systems.
