Detailed explanation-2: -The income effect identifies the change in consumers’ demand for goods and services based on their incomes. In general, as one’s income rises, they will begin to demand more goods. Similarly, A decrease in income results in lower demand.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ans: True. (Q14) In case of inferior goods, law of demand fails only when negative income effect is lower than the substitution effect.
