Answer to Question 1

The market supply curve for a good can be found by summing the quantities supplied by all of the firms selling in the market for that good. Since all firms' supply curves are upward sloping (due to the law of supply), the market supply curve will also be upward sloping. Therefore, the law of supply does apply to the market supply curve as well.

Answer to Question 2

The slope of the budget constraint would remain unchanged. However the budget constraint would shift outward and to the right.
