Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Economists call this the Law of Demand. If the price goes up, the quantity demanded goes down (but demand itself stays the same). If the price decreases, quantity demanded increases. This is the Law of Demand.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Law of Demand states that there is an indirect relationship between the price of a good or service and the quantity of that good or service that consumers are willing and able to buy. In other words, as the price of an item increases, buyers are less willing and able to buy it and vice versa.
