The price of digital cameras fell because of improvements in production technology. As a result, the demand for non-digital cameras decreased.
 
  This caused the price of non-digital cameras to fall; as the price of non-digital cameras fell the demand for non-digital cameras decreased even further. Evaluate this statement.

  D) The statement is false because it confuses the law of demand with the law of supply.
