"Businesses Create Jobs."

Lower interest rates make borrowing cheaper, so people and firms borrow and spend/invest more. That boosts demand and business activity, causing firms to expand and hire. (The other options are inconsistent: lower rates generally raise — not lower — inflation and money supply, and they don't cause people to spend less.)
