Answer to Question 1

The law of supply indicates the direct or positive relationship between price and quantity supplied. This law states that when the price of a good increases, sellers will make more of that good available for a specified period of time, other things being equal. Other things being equal, a higher price gives producers more incentive to produce and sell more of that product. Conversely, when the price of a good decreases, sellers will make less of that good available for a specified time period.
