If the demand curve for a product slopes downward and to the right, it indicates that more of the product is demanded as its price is lowered

Indicate whether the statement is true or false
a. True
b. False


ANSWER: True

If the demand curve of a product slopes downward and to the right, it indicates that more of the product is demanded as the price is lowered. In other words, if manufacturers of the product put a greater quantity on the market, then their hope of selling all of it will be realized only by selling it at a lower price.
