The situation described involves Isabella's body slowing down her metabolism in response to hunger, which is a way for her body to conserve energy. This is an example of a negative feedback loop because the body is decreasing its metabolic function to maintain homeostasis (in this case, to conserve energy when food intake is low).
So the correct response is: Negative because her body is decreasing a function.
