The two correct answers that explain how the concept of demand affects the change in use of credit are:

  1. High interest rates yield low demand for credit.
  2. Low interest rates yield high demand for credit.

These responses reflect the relationship between interest rates and consumer demand for credit: as interest rates rise, the cost of borrowing increases, leading to reduced demand for credit; conversely, lower interest rates decrease the cost of borrowing, leading to higher demand for credit.
