We investigate the magnetotransport in large area graphene Hall bars epitaxially grown on silicon carbide. In the intermediate field regime between weak localization and Landau quantization the observed temperature-dependent parabolic magnetoresistivity is a manifestation of electron-electron interaction. We can consistently describe the data with a model for diffusive (magneto)transport that covers the crossover to the ballistic regime. We find a temperature-driven crossover related to the reduction of the multiplet modes contributing to electron-electron interaction from 7 to 3 due to intervalley scattering. In addition we find a field-driven crossover from purely diffusive to partially ballistic behavior.
