    A When price of coarse rice increase, consumption of coarse rice also increases Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    D Both (b) and (c) are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    An increase in income leads to decline in demand of an inferior good but a fall in price leads to decline in demand of an inferior good only when it is a giffen good as well. But all inferior goods are not giffen and the question only mentions inferior good. Therefor option b is correct.
