Correct answer: "As price decreases, supply decreases, but demand increases."

Explanation: By the law of demand, a lower price causes a higher quantity demanded (consumers buy more). By the law of supply, a lower price causes a lower quantity supplied (producers supply less). (Technically these are movements along the demand and supply curves — a price change changes quantity demanded/supplied, not the underlying demand or supply curves themselves.)
